The Salt City Burlesque Festival is a celebration of burlesque and vaudeville arts to be held in Syracuse, New York over Memorial Weekend 2023.
The two-day event will include a total of 3 showcases, workshops, and a closing party featuring a plethora of local, regional, and national/international performance artists at The Palace Theater and Wunderbar.
The event will be headlined by the current reigning "Miss Exotic World" also known as the Burlesque Hall of Fame "Queen of Burlesque" Lou Lou la Duchesse de Riere. An afro-indigenous artist hailing from Kahnawake, Quebec, and recently voted the second most influential burlesque figure in the world, Lou Lou will be returning to Syracuse for the second time this May. She will perform her award-winning act on The Palace stage in our first official large comeback since we last hosted the previous Miss Exotic World in February of 2020, just 2 weeks shy of total shut down across the globe. The troupe is extremely proud to come full circle and hopes to make the festival an annual event. Special feature performers also include Kitty Kin Evil (Ottawa, ON, Canada), and Maestro Maestra (Syracuse, NY).
Day one of the event will be held at The Palace Theatre at 2384 James St. in Syracuse, NY 13206.

Parking Info per Palace Theatre Website- Parking for the Palace is located behind the building. You can access this lot via Stafford Ave. Parking is also permitted across the street behind the United Health Care building. Although some people may choose to park on Stafford Ave instead of behind The United Health Care build we ask that you do not. We do our best to respect our residents in Eastwood and it can be hard for the residents of Stafford Ave to access their homes when people use both sides of the street for parking during events at our venue.
