The Glasgow Festival of Burlesque was founded in 2014 and took to the stage of the Riding Room and The Polo Lounge in 2015. It showcased and still does showcase some of the finest burlesque talent from Glasgow and a little... well a big bit... further.
This year we celebrate our 10th Birthday and what a weekend it's going to be. Featuring a live ceilidh band, 2 Scottish burlesque superstars and a UK burlesque lengend it’s gonna be outstanding!
