The ilLustrious Debutante Ball
June 6.
Doors 7:00 pm | 7:30 start
After a sold-out debut, we’re back with another intimate, high-impact night of burlesque, drag, and cabaret… and this time we’re bringing in interstate icons to join some of ilLustrious’ finest.
Expect a room full of heat, glamour, chaos, and the kind of performances you simply cannot experience through a screen.
This is fringe art at its best.
Up close. Personal. Slightly dangerous.
If you missed the first one, don’t make the same mistake twice.
Tickets: Here
Limited capacity. Intimate vibes. No bad seats.
Sweet and Sour Burlesque
June 13
Doors 7:00 pm | 7:30 start
A high-energy, hyper-femme celebration of pop, chaos, and contradiction, Empress Eyrie and Lola Lust are bringing together burlesque, drag, and cabaret performers who know how to serve sugar… and bite back.
Expect bubblegum meets breakdown.
Glitter meets grit.
Cute, chaotic, and just a little bit feral.
We’ll also have:
A Best Dressed Competition so wear your cutest, campiest, most unhinged girly pop fit
A Trinket Table where you can swap little treasures, collectables, friendship bracelets, stickers, charms and shiny nonsense with fellow attendees
VIP TICKETS INCLUDE
Early venue entry
One free drink
Sweet & Sour lolly bag

From soft and sultry to sharp and explosive, this is a night of duality where performers embrace every side of themselves and dare you to keep up.

The ilLustrious Debutante Ball
August 22
Doors 7:00 pm | 7:30 start
A night of firsts, finery and fabulous transformations.
The ilLustrious Debutante Ball is a celebration of performers stepping into the spotlight for the very first time. Expect elegance, nerves, triumph, sparkle and the unmistakable magic of watching someone realise they are a star mid-routine.
This is where confidence is crowned, heels are christened, and stage names are born.
Come cheer loudly. Cry proudly. Fall in love with the future of burlesque.

September 12, 2026
Doors 7:00 pm | 7:30 start
General $30 or $25 presale
A whimsical other-worldly burlesque fantasy night.
Step into the porcelain dream.
Ethereal is a soft and spellbinding evening of fairy courts, living dolls, glittering spirits and delicate creatures who may or may not be watching you back. Expect lace, wings, ribbons, rhinestones and performances that float somewhere between dream and desire.
Pretty things behave badly here.
Enter the magic. Leave sparkling.
EOIs opening soon.
