Burlesque Shows in Las Vegas - Ranked

A timeless staple of the entertainment scene, burlesque shows in Las Vegas have entertained visitors for decades. Perfectly fitting the “Sin City” moniker, burlesque shows are racy and sexy, often featuring topless performers and striptease routines.

Shows of this genre can be the perfect option for couples looking to spice things up, bachelor parties, and bachelorette parties in Las Vegas.

Below, I’ll summarize which burlesque shows in Las Vegas that are currently running and rank them from best to worst based on customer reviews on TripAdvisor.

Ticket prices can vary when looking at the box office vs. 3rd party ticketing websites. I’ll link out to a couple of ticketing options for each show so that you can quickly compare prices and get the best deal.

Best Burlesque Shows in Las Vegas

Zombie Burlesque at Planet Hollywood

Transport yourself back to the late 1950s and enter Club Z, a window into zombie culture. A unique twist on the traditional sexy burlesque show, Zombie Burlesque has earned 4.5/5 stars on TripAdvisor after 2,700+ reviews earning it the crown as the best burlesque show in Vegas.

Rouge at STRAT

The self-proclaimed “Sexiest Show in Vegas” is one of the newest burlesque shows in town, incorporating the “sexpertise” of both men and women.

Uniquely, the topless show also incorporates a variety of “non-burlesque” acts like comedians, contortionists, and acrobatics into the production.

Reviews have started to trickle in, and Rouge has earned an impressive 4.5/5 stars on TripAdvisor after 80+ reviews, ranking it among the best options in town.

Fantasy at Luxor

Earning a rock-solid 4.0/5 stars on TripAdvisor after over 765 reviews, Fantasy finds itself in a tie as the second-best burlesque show in Las Vegas. Tickets typically cost between $50 – $75.

X Country at Harrah’s

Another themed Las Vegas burlesque show, X Country is a topless revue set to hits from the country music genre.

Although there are only 15 reviews, this “Kick’n Topless Revue” has earned 3.5/5 stars on TripAdvisor and should be a consideration for visitors that consider themselves to be country.

Exxcite at Rio

A product of Jennifer Romas, Exxcite is a 75-minute “crazy train” that now calls Rio’s Duomo Theater home. Choreographed to rock music, Exxcite tracks the history of female sexuality from the 1950s to today while paying homage to the Sin City’s glamorous showgirl past.

Currently Paused Burlesque Shows

Caesars recently re-shuffled their entertainment options leaving several shows, including X Rocks and Crazy Girls, theaterless for the time being. I’ll be sure to update this post when and if they’re able to find a new home!

X Rocks

If bands like Metallica and AC/DC are up your alley, then this topless revue set to the hits could be a great fit. With performers adorned in a leather wardrobe and even “Slash-inspired” top hats, this sexy burlesque show could be the perfect way to rev your evening up. While not the best burlesque show in Vegas, only earning 4/5 stars on TripAdvisor, this could still be a solid option for rock fans.

Crazy Girls

A classic, and long-running Las Vegas burlesque show, Crazy Girls once called the Riviera Hotel and Casino home. Today, the sexy topless revue can be found at Planet Hollywood, and the iconic bronze statue depicting their backsides that once sat outside Riviera is located on the casino floor. Earning only 4/5 stars on TripAdvisor, this show could still represent a good value at its price point. Even if you don’t stop in for the show, the statue is rumored to provide good luck to those that give it a rub.
