LAS VEGAS (Sept. 30, 2025) – The highly acclaimed Queen of Burlesque, Dita Von Teese, is extending her smash-hit residency at Voltaire at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas through Summer 2026, and tickets for performances are on sale now. The announcement follows the one-year anniversary of her dazzling debut at Voltaire, where her glamorously provocative and wholly original, seductive showgirl—and showboy—spectacular has quickly become a standout on The Strip.
Featuring a parade of the only authentic vintage Bob Mackie and Pete Menefee showgirl costumes in Las Vegas and paired with extravagant couture by Jenny Packham and Christian Louboutin, set against Voltaire’s dramatic deco-styled theater, the revue embodies the glitz and glamour for which Las Vegas is known. With shimmering modern energy, each performance showcases her distinctive artistry and two-decade influence that sparked the newfound popularity of burlesque.
“Performing at Voltaire has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my career,” said Dita Von Teese. “This venue truly feels like home, and I’m thrilled that this revue has been so well-loved in Las Vegas. Extending into 2026 is both a celebration of what we’ve built and a chance to keep evolving the production night after night.”
Since its opening, the residency has drawn in an array of high-profile guests including Pamela Anderson, Jon Hamm, Aaron Paul, Christina Hendricks, Miranda Lambert and Shania Twain. Its cultural footprint also extends beyond Las Vegas, with Von Teese’s dancers and show costumes featured in Gia Coppola’s Golden Globe-nominated film “The Last Showgirl.”
Dita Von Teese performs select dates, Thursday – Sunday, with shows at 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 8 p.m. Thursday and Sunday. To view show dates and purchase tickets for performances now through June 2026, visit voltairelv.com.

About Voltaire

The seductive venue offers an unparalleled night out on The Strip where guests can enjoy the pregame, main event and afterparty all in one spectacular place.

About Dita Von Teese
Dita Von Teese is internationally recognized as the Queen of Burlesque, having set a history-making benchmark for this great American art form, with unrivaled artistry and flair as performer, creative director, choreographer and producer, selling to sold-out houses from London to Shanghai to Sao Paulo and Las Vegas.
Add style icon to the list, as Dita is muse to some of the greatest couturiers and designers. Besides a signature style referenced by countless designers, she is spotlighted in campaigns and on runways and red carpets. This, in addition to her own eponymous forays in fashion, beauty, music, publishing, spirits and entertainment production as designer, collaborator and entrepreneur.
Heather Renée Sweet was born in Rochester, Michigan, the middle of three sisters and fixated early on cinema’s Golden Age via weekend TV. As a teen in Southern California, she idolized burlesque icon Gypsy Rose Lee, as an entertainer and as a businesswoman. In 1992, this natural blonde changed her hair color and name and embarked on her own take on the art of striptease.
On stage, Dita is renowned for her nonpareil romp into fantasy and spectacle, her original and ornate “stripscapes” and haute couture costumes glazed in Swarovski crystals. Jean-Paul Gaultier, Elie Saab, Alexis Mabille, Jenny Packham and Christian Louboutin are among the designers who custom dress her for stage. Many of her most awe-inspiring costumes are realized with master corsetier Mr. Pearl and burlesque star-turned-designer Catherine D’Lish. So extraordinary are her performances and productions that Dita is a marquee ambassador worldwide for the artform.
Taylor Swift tapped her to play a burlesque-styled fairy godmother to the pop icon’s Cinderella in the star-studded music video “Bejeweled,” the chart-topping track off Swift’s 2022 bestselling album, Midnights. Dita shares two of her trademark martini glasses in the video, the two icons taking a sparkling spin within them. Weeks before, Dita teased movie goers across the globe in the critically acclaimed film “Don’t Worry Darling,” with Harry Styles, Florence Pugh and Olivia Wilde.
On TV, she brought burlesque to prime-time stateside as guest star on CSI, in one of the hit series highest-rated episodes. In France, Dita kicked up ratings on “Dancing with the Stars,” a decade after she was the first guest star in the history of the Crazy Horse Paris, reviving the landmark cabaret club there.
In books, Dita’s fourth is underway, a fashion companion to The New York Times bestseller, Your Beauty Mark: The Ultimate Guide to Eccentric Glamour (Harper Collins), available in several languages. Next up is Fashioning the Femme Totale: The Ultimate Guide to Glamonatrix Style, teaming her up again with writer-creative director Rose Apodaca, and emphasizing Dita’s singular vintage-tinged aesthetic.
It is a style that Dita has also taken to market with namesake collections in lingerie, gloves, jewelry and fragrances.
Crowned the “Burlesque Superheroine” by Vanity Fair, Dita has appeared twice on its coveted International Best Dressed List. She has performed for Louis Vuitton, Chopard, Cartier and at the Cannes Film Festival; and was a premier guest star in Gaultier’s “Fashion Freak Show” at the Folies Bergère in Paris in 2019. She also walked the runway for the celebrated designer’s shows over the years, including his watershed 2020 finale.
Dita has long engaged her “superpowers” as an advocate for LGBTQ rights, cancer and for feminist causes—the latter garnering invitations to address the Oxford Student Union. Her longstanding AIDS activism, both private and public, includes serving as MAC Viva Glam Spokesperson (2006-2008) to the many performances and in-person support for amfAR—which honored her with the Award of Courage (2008).
Always exploring new opportunities to spread the gospel of glamour and burlesque, Dita appeared on Perrier bottles (2010), and served as global ambassador for Cointreau (2007-2013). Since 2021, she is a partner, ambassador and creative director in Sweet Gwendoline French Gin, with branding and viral content inspired by the fetishistic art of John Willie, a longtime inspiration.
It always returns to the curtain call, and Dita’s four full-length revues are the grandest tours in burlesque history: “Strip, Strip, Hooray!” (2013-2016), “The Art of the Teese” (2017), “Dita Von Teese and the Copper Coupe” (2018), and “Glamonatrix” (2019 and 2022-2023). The latter sold out in historic theatres across Australia, New Zealand, Europe and the US—including five sold-out nights at the London Palladium, and packed houses at the prestigious Folies Bergère in Paris and Burgtheatre in Vienna. Dita made theatrical history bringing burlesque to the Opera Garnier Monte Carlo, with Prince Albert II of Monaco in attendance.
These sensational spectaculars, along with the current Las Vegas residency, present a gender- and body-diverse cast of the crème de la crème of neo-burlesque performers, hailing from all over the world, celebrating the spirit of joie de vivre so dear to Dita Von Teese.
