Bump-and-grind enthusiasts, mark your calendars! The Texas Burlesque Festival returns May 13–15, 2027, for a milestone 20th anniversary celebration, bringing three nights of dazzling performance, outrageous comedy, classic tease, and boundary-pushing variety to Austin.
For two decades, the Texas Burlesque Festival has brought together performers and audiences from across Texas, the United States, and around the world to celebrate the creativity, spectacle, humor, and ever-evolving art of burlesque. In 2027, the Festival honors 20 years of tassel twirling, unforgettable performances, and burlesque community while welcoming another generation of artists to the Texas stage.
The celebration begins Thursday, May 13, with a Mixer and Performance at Elysium Night Club, followed by two full nights of performances Friday, May 14, and Saturday, May 15, at the Rollins Theatre at The Long Center.
