Berlin: Showgirls of Burlesque Show
Book on GetYourGuide →Operated by SIXX PAXX, Concert GmbH · Bookable on GetYourGuide
Legs, laughs, and glamour in Berlin. This Showgirls of Burlesque show at Showbühne Berlin blends vintage glamour with a modern twist in a tight, 2-hour package. I like how the acts mix classic elegance with playful energy, so you get more than one flavor of entertainment in a single night.
One thing to know up front: the hosting is mainly in German, so you’ll lean on the music, dancing, and performer energy more than spoken explanations. And based on real-world arrival feedback, the entrance can be a bit tricky to spot, so give yourself a touch of buffer time.

Key things to know before you go

- Showbühne Berlin is the purpose-built home for this troupe and the show runs in a professional stage setup
- The Glam Girls deliver a “golden years” journey through burlesque with a modern feminine edge
- Expect a full mix: burlesque, cabaret, comedy, and acrobatics all in one evening
- Language isn’t a deal-breaker: the hosting is primarily German, but the performances are designed to land for everyone
- Drinks cost extra (the show ticket covers entry only), so plan your budget for an evening out
Showbühne Berlin: where burlesque feels like a real night out

Showbühne Berlin is exactly the kind of venue that makes a burlesque ticket feel special. This isn’t a “watch a quick act between things” setup. It’s a showhouse vibe: you sit down, the lights change, and the evening is built around performances—music, dancing, comedy, and acrobatics—rather than long breaks or filler.
You’re paying for a 2-hour entertainment block, not a tour of landmarks. That matters because burlesque works best when the pacing stays tight. If you’re used to museum pacing—slow, reflective, stop-and-go—this will feel different. Here, you’ll be watching full-on stage craft, with the kind of showmanship that’s easier to appreciate when you’re focused and settled.
Also, the show is presented as a home of world-class entertainment. The production style is designed to read clearly even when you don’t follow every bit of spoken German. In practice, that means you can still enjoy what the performers are doing: the rhythm, the character work, the choreography, and the punchlines.
A few more Berlin tours and experiences worth a look
The Glam Girls and Showgirls of Burlesque: what the 2 hours actually delivers

This ticket covers entry to Showbühne for the Showgirls of Burlesque show by The Glam Girls. The concept is a journey through the golden years of burlesque, but with a modern touch. Think classic elegance on the outside, and sharper comedic timing and present-day femininity in the execution.
In a typical evening like this, you’ll experience a sequence of acts rather than one long uninterrupted segment. The show is described as including burlesque plus cabaret-style entertainment, with comedy and acrobatics added to keep the energy high and the surprises coming.
Here’s what that means for you:
- You won’t just watch costumes and dancing. You’ll see performance styles layered together—comedy beats, rhythm changes, and physical feats.
- The “golden years” framing isn’t just marketing. It’s part of the tone: a glamorous past vibe, but presented in a way meant for today’s audience enjoyment.
- The show leans into showbiz spectacle. Even the promotional line about the longest legs in showbiz is part of the fun spirit of burlesque: playful confidence, not seriousness.
If you’re the type who enjoys variety—fast-to-understand entertainment with clear stage direction—this format is a win.
Burlesque, cabaret, comedy, and acrobatics: the performance mix you’re paying for

One reason this show keeps getting strong ratings is the spread of performance types. Many burlesque nights stick mostly to dance and costume work. This one explicitly stacks multiple entertainment formats: extravagant burlesque, cabaret, comedy, and acrobatics.
Why that matters for your evening:
- Burlesque and cabaret give you the glamour and theatrical storytelling. Even without a lot of spoken language, you can follow the mood shifts.
- Comedy keeps it from turning into a single-note experience. If one act is more dramatic or decorative, the next may lighten things up.
- Acrobatics changes the tempo and raises the visual stakes. It adds a “wait, how did they do that” element, which is perfect in a live setting because you can’t rewind.
So you get a night that feels like a complete show, not a collection of half-related segments.
German-hosted but universal performances: how to enjoy it even if you don’t speak German
The show is primarily hosted in German. That could sound intimidating, but the good news is in how the program is built. The music and dance are designed to be universally appealing, and the crew is described as multilingual to help make the experience accessible.
Here’s your practical strategy:
- Don’t stress about understanding every spoken line. Watch the performer cues, the timing, and the way the acts shift.
- Let the music and movement do the heavy lifting. In stage entertainment like this, body language and rhythm often communicate as clearly as words.
- If you need help, the multilingual crew support is part of the plan. You’re not walking into a completely language-only wall.
And one extra tip from the on-the-ground vibe: people who go in curious and open-minded tend to get more out of the evening. Burlesque is about confidence, character, and stage presence. You don’t need a German script to enjoy that.
Getting there and finding the entrance: small logistics that can spoil (or save) your night

Your ticket is for a 2-hour show at Showbühne Berlin, and you’ll also appreciate the included benefit of skipping the ticket line. That’s not just convenience. It’s time you get back to settle in, use the restroom before the lights go down, and get comfortable.
One practical caution: the entrance can be difficult to find, even when arriving by taxi. If you don’t want the pre-show stress, do this:
- Arrive early enough to slow down and orient yourself.
- Follow local signage once you’re close, not just the address you see on a map.
- If you’re unsure, ask on-site staff for the right entry point instead of wandering during the busiest arrival window.
Because once the show starts, you want your only job to be watching.
Tickets, value, and what $76 buys you in Berlin

The price is listed at $76 per person, and the duration is 2 hours. The ticket includes entry only. That means drinks are not included, and you should expect to pay extra if you want a cocktail or other beverages during the show.
So is it good value? Here’s how I’d judge it:
- For a full live performance that blends multiple show styles, 2 hours is a solid length. You’re buying a complete evening entertainment chunk.
- The show format is described as professional, with world-class performers and a polished stage atmosphere.
- The included entry plus skip-the-line benefit saves time and friction.
You’ll likely spend a bit more if you order drinks. One review specifically mentions good cocktails, so budgeting for that isn’t a gamble—it’s realistic. If you treat this as the anchor event of your night (and not a quick side stop), the price starts to make sense.
Also, the provider is SIXX PAXX, Concert GmbH. That’s the kind of detail worth noting because it connects the event to a formal concert/event operator rather than a vague pop-up.
Drinks, crowd mood, and how to plan your Berlin evening
This ticket includes the show entry, not drinks, and there’s no live guide included. That means your experience is about the performance itself.
What to plan around:
- If you want to drink, decide ahead of time whether you’re doing one drink before or after the show. The show ticket doesn’t include that cost.
- Keep your schedule simple. A burlesque and cabaret show works best as a main event. If you pile on other activities immediately before and after, you’ll feel rushed.
Crowd mood tends to be part of the fun in shows like this—people come dressed up or in a “night out” frame of mind. Even if you arrive in everyday clothes, you’ll still fit in because the show is the star. Just don’t plan on it being a quiet, sit-through-and-leave-fast experience. It’s entertainment, and it’s designed to feel lively.
Wheelchair access and ID requirements: don’t overlook these basics
This experience is listed as wheelchair accessible, and that’s a real practical point for planning. If you use mobility aids, you should still arrive with a little extra time to get settled, but the access is built into the venue setup as indicated.
For identification, you should bring a passport or ID card. A copy is accepted. This is one of those details that can stop your night fast if you forget, so toss your ID into your bag early.
The Hamburg angle: a clue for future plans
One highlight mentions an all-new Hamburg venue that’s now bigger and better. That doesn’t change your Berlin night, but it’s useful if your trip includes Hamburg later. It suggests the troupe’s show ecosystem is expanding, so you may be able to catch a similar style of performance in another city.
Even if you’re only doing Berlin, it helps you understand this show isn’t just a one-off concept. It’s part of a broader entertainment footprint.
Who should book Showgirls of Burlesque in Berlin?
Book it if you want:
- A glamorous stage show that’s more entertaining than “cultural lecture”
- Variety in one evening: burlesque plus cabaret, comedy, and acrobatics
- A performance-first night where language doesn’t have to be your main concern
Skip or think twice if:
- You want heavy narration and detailed spoken explanations in English or in a language you fully understand. Hosting is primarily German.
- You’re sensitive to late arrival stress. Entrance finding can be tricky, so arrive early and give yourself room.
This is also a good date-night pick. It’s playful, classy, and built for watching together without needing to talk much during the show.
Quick checklist for your Berlin night
- Bring your ID or passport (a copy is accepted)
- Expect German hosting, but focus on music and movement
- Plan to buy drinks separately since the ticket is entry only
- Arrive early enough to find the entrance calmly
- Treat this as a main event in your schedule so the 2 hours feel effortless
Should you book this show?
Yes, if you want a polished, fun Berlin evening built around live performance craft. The best reasons to go are simple: the show mixes burlesque glamour with comedy and acrobatics, and the performances are made to work even when German is the main hosting language.
If you hate the idea of any language barrier at all, or you arrive late and hate uncertainty, then it may be a frustrating night. But for most people looking for a memorable “Berlin by night” experience, this one is a strong pick.
