Every autumn, the city proudly hosts the top burlesque festival in the world where leading global entertainers compete for titles and bragging rights.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Now That\u2019s a Show!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Every year since the 2009 inception, the festival gets bigger and better. It began as a sheer competition but now the parties, panels, workshops and showcases often take center stage! It\u2019s so big, two venues are now required to hold it. Some of the most popular events include the Queen of Burlesque Competition, standing-room shows, the Queen\u2019s Ball, and a variety of showcases like the Bad Girls of Burlesque.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t miss the solo acts set to live jazz music, and watch the celebrity judges narrow down the best of the best. Once the queen is crowned, she hosts the massive ball and leads a court of dancers on a whirlwind night of entertainment. Sunday night\u2019s party isn\u2019t to be missed, so be sure to pace yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Is autumn making you feel a little cheeky?
