Serving sweet treats with a side of spicy performance

Burlesque and drag are costume-based performance styles, usually comedic, satirical and/or sensual. Burlesque centres around the art of the strip-tease, while drag primarily plays with gender expression. With each curated experience, we deliver performances that are unique and captivating.

Cake Cabaret also hosts social events like Trivia and Early Clubbing Nights. These do not feature a performance and are a more relaxed environment for hanging out and making friends.
