What is a cabaret act at an event?

Cabaret and burlesque performers bring old-school glamour: feathers, sparkle, live vocals and theatrical routines. At events they are tasteful and fun, pitched to your audience.

Cabaret works well in Parisian, Gatsby and under-the-sea themes, and as a short set between courses at a dinner.

Where it works best

  • Christmas parties

    A glamorous show moment.

  • Private parties

    Milestone birthdays with a theme.

  • Parisian themes

    The cabaret heart of the night.

  • Between courses

    A short set to lift a dinner.

  • Under-the-sea

    Themed cabaret in a treasure chest or shell.

  • Gatsby nights

    Roaring twenties glamour.

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Short sets work best

    One or two short sets keep energy high without stopping the night.

  2. 2

    Brief us on the audience

    We tailor every routine and costume to who is in the room.

  3. 3

    Plan the music

    Cabaret usually brings its own tracks. We agree the cue with your DJ or AV team.

Frequently asked questions

Do venues around Edinburgh have rules for performers?

Many hotels and country houses have rules on ceiling rigging, fire, access times and changing space. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we will check everything before we confirm.

How much do burlesque and cabaret acts cost in Edinburgh?

There is no fixed price. Every event is different. Prices depend on the acts, the number of performers, timings, travel and location, so we quote each booking individually. Travel is part of the quote, and Edinburgh is 41 miles east of Glasgow. Send us your date and venue for free, no-obligation options.

Which postcodes around Edinburgh do you cover?

All of EH1, EH2, EH3, EH4, EH5, EH6, EH7, EH8, EH9, EH10, EH11, EH12, EH13, EH14, EH16 and EH17, plus the rest of Edinburgh and nearby Musselburgh, Penicuik, Dunfermline and Kirkcaldy.

Is burlesque suitable for a work event?

Yes, when it is pitched right. We brief the performers on your audience and keep it glamorous and tasteful.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can. Friday and Saturday dates in December and the summer months go first, often months ahead. Short notice is sometimes possible, so it is always worth asking.

Can the performers match our theme or brand colours?

Usually, yes. Tell us your theme, colours or brand guidelines and we will suggest the costumes and acts that fit best.

Do you work with our venue and event team?

Yes. We agree access, changing space, timings and any venue rules before the day, and work to your run of show.
