For Immediate Release:
Due to the world pandemic Covid-19, the annual international Ohio Burlesque Festival that was slated to take place on August 6th thru 8th of 2020 at The Beachland Ballroom & Tavern in the Waterloo Arts District will be postponed to the new date of October 15th, 16th and 17th of 2020 at the same location.
Due to the state of current events, we felt it was irresponsible to move forth with the Festival on the August date as we do not want to jeopardize the health of our staff, crew, performers, fans, friends, and family.
We are currently extending our application deadline to April 30th, 2020 and are waiving the application fee so as not to take any money out of households that may be struggling to cover basic living expenses.
We have taken precautions with our venue to make sure we are providing a safe and healthy environment for everyone involved. The Ohio Burlesque Festival team is staying informed on all the current updates issued by official healthcare organizations and we are fast on our feet making changes where needed.
More information will be made available on our website and mailing list along with our social media where we will be making announcements on headliners, features, cast, and emcees.
Tickets for the Ohio Burlesque Festival will be on sale once our venue is reopened and they are fully operational.
We understand the financial strain on our fans that this pandemic has taken and we will be offering special pricing and other discounts for people to be able to enjoy our event once we return to a state of sort-of-normal.
We thank you for your time and patronage for the last 10 years of The International Ohio Burlesque Festival and for your support of our Cleveland Burlesque LLC team.
We ask you to take a moment to support our home venue Beachland Ballroom & Tavern by visiting their online store and purchasing Gift Cards to buy future tickets for our shows along with merch.

festivalReview by Altohio.com for The Ohio Burlesque Festival
""I witnessed the dazzling spectacle on Friday, August 5th, the second night in a three day long festival, and I would argue dollar for dollar it had to be the best show in Cleveland that night (and of the entire weekend). Acts from all over the country performed as well as the Le Femme Mystique performers who have made Cleveland a burlesque destination for the rest of the country.
Friday night was hosted by the witty Ken Schneck, who had me rolling around laughing in between acts, simply by exuding his enthusiasm, observational humor, and obvious love for the performers and the show." - Continue reading

Review by Altohio.com from the Show Nerdlesque
*Aside from all the glamour, talent, and tons of rhinestones that graced the Beachland Ballroom stage, another aspect of the show really hit me in a profound way. All of the burlesque dancers were different body types and, both as a woman and a person who appreciates good art, I found that refreshing. Sin explained about the troupe’s body inclusive and body positive attitude, “We fight a lot with the fact that people do not find female form in general sexy. I needed to showcase women of all sizes, colors, sexual orientations, because they all have a story…Everybody has a type and a fetish and not everybody is the same.” *- Lisa AltOhio.com
