The Melbourne Festival of Tease

The first weekend of May, every year.

The Melbourne Festival of Tease isn’t just another burlesque festival, it’s a bold new movement. 

The latest jewel in Naarm’s nightlife, a burlesque celebration like no other.​​

What’s on the menu? Big band headliner shows, a fabulous competition, hands-on workshops, a buzzing community market, and the kind of after party you’ll be telling stories about for years.

Founded by long time collaborators: Lauren Thiel (The Real Thiel, Big Clit Energy) & international burlesque powerhouse Bettie Bombshell,

The Melbourne Festival of Tease brings the best of the best together: iconic legends, ones to watch, and world-class talent all under one roof.

This weekender unites the brightest stars of the global stage with the rich, velvet heart of Melbourne’s own scene.

 

We honour the legends who  came before us, revel in the brilliance of now, and step boldly into the future of tease.

Queerly beloved, we are gathered here to worship all that glitters, all the shade, and those that are not afraid! It's gay CHURCH. So please, confess your sins.
You're home sweet home now. 

+The stage is holy and this is how we pray+

I'm with the BANNED

Late night rock & roll, wrapped in cabaret chaos. Where drinks are stiff, the music is loud, and the only way in is by saying "I’m with the BANNED."
