As the Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend has grown, so has our commitment to celebrating the women and men who made burlesque great. We are proud of our Living Legends—and we need your help to get as many of them as possible to Vegas this year. We can’t spell “Burlesque” without “U,” so please help us rock this year’s BHoF Weekend Legends Challenge!
The Virtual Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekender (“VHoF”) is a 48-hour continuously streaming virtual fundraiser showcasing the best-in-class burlesque. New for 2021: In addition to showcases produced by the VHoF production team, VHoF will feature productions curated by guest producers from around the world. Truly, this will be a unique opportunity to “tour” global burlesque and in two-days! Proceeds from the VHoF fundraiser will benefit the Burlesque Hall of Fame, a 501(c)3 non-profit museum committed to preserving, sharing, celebrating, and inspiring the art of burlesque.
VHoF will take place August 6-8, 2021.
Anywhere and everywhere with internet, VHoF is completely virtual!
Anyone who loves burlesque– performers, producers, enthusiasts, academics! Virtual as an accessible opportunity to welcome even more folks to join us in celebrating burlesque. Please note that VHoF will feature mature content so viewers should be 18+.
The VHoF platform will be browser-based so additional downloads are not required on a computer browser. A strong internet connection speed will be required in order to watch. On mobile, depending on the type of device, an additional app download may be required in order to view.
Why not? Those who have attended the traditional in-person event know this as the “Oscars” of burlesque, We highly encourage you to dress to impress! Who knows, there may be a red carpet opportunity on the virtual platform for you to strut your stuff. Or share photos of your own red carpet at home and hashtag #VHoF!
There will be no Tournament of Tease at VHoF or any other BHoF virtual offerings for 2021.
Accepted applicants for both showcase and competition have been notified by email that their slots will be held for 2022.
In addition to BHoF titleholders and Legends, selected performers and productions from the wider burlesque community will be showcased.
We’re always looking for volunteers! See below opportunities: If you’ve any experience managing virtual productions, sound mixing, digital graphics, then please email the VHoF Production Team.
