Blowing through town for the sixth time, the 2016 Windy City Burlesque Festival is back once again to bring some hot and sexy fun to your Chicago summer. As always, we bring an eclectic mix of performers from all over the world, including some of the top names in burlesque to lead the way. We have Seattle’s own Kitten ‘N’ Lou headlining this year. And Las Vegas Legend Tiffany Carter returns again as the WCBF’s Official Burlesque Legend. Joining them are our featured performers: The One and Only Inga (Seattle) and Audrey Deluxe (Los Angeles by way of New Orleans).

Kicking things off this year will be a special Chicago showcase (and after-party!), introducing you to a spectacular mix of the diverse talents that make our city such a unique haven for burlesque entertainment.

Once your Warm-Up Wednesday is done, we kick it into high gear with five shows from Thursday through Saturday. With our shows, we continue our mission of putting a bright spotlight on the ideas of positivity and inclusivity for styles, body types, sexual identities, and messages. There’s a place for everyone here in Chicago, and once again, Stage 773 is the place to be for all your WCBF needs. Whether it’s shows, parties, vending, or photo opportunities, if we ain’t got it, you don’t need it!

And if inspiration hits you, why not take one of our festival workshops? We’ll have two days’ worth of them this year - all at Stage 773 on Friday and Saturday afternoons. You’ll learn from the very best that burlesque has to offer!

The Windy City Burlesque Festival - come be a part of something fabulous!
