Vancouver is home to a number of very exciting, prestegious and internatinally celebrated performers but we are known for our versatile burlesque community that not only includes our performers, but our fans as well. We know you will appreciate the history and community behind the art. Join us for this exciting fundraiser and help us celebrate our living legends of bulresuqe.
The Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend is not only the world’s biggest and most prestigious burlesque gathering, it is also the longest running. Continuous since 1957, the weekend has its roots in Hall of Fame founder Jennie Lee‘s annual gathering of stars from the art’s heyday. Since Jennie’s passing in 1990, Dixie Evans had upheld that dream, growing the reunion from an informal, private gathering of retired exotics into the internationally renowned four-day extravaganza now known as Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend.
As Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend has grown, so has our commitment to celebrating the women (and men) who made burlesque great. We are proud of our Living Legends—and we need your help to get as many of them as possible to Vegas this year.
That’s right, members of the international burlesque community are showing their love for our Living Legends by helping raise money to help the museum offset the cost of sending them to BHOF Weekend this June.
In today’s difficult financial climate, BHOF has very limited funds—and as such, ability to cover travel costs for burlesque’s honored guests has been severely compromised. By attending Bump & Grind Rewind, you’re not only helping us bring vintage superstars to Las Vegas, you’re helping support the Hall of Fame itself.
