BROADWAY BARES: HIT THE STRIP to Take Place in June

Broadway Bares: Hit the Strip, this year’s edition of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS’ annual striptease spectacular, will make its debut in June! 

More than 150 of NYC’s most dazzling dancers erupt into full-out, larger-than-life burlesque production numbers on Sunday, June 23, 2024, at Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.

Pleasure seekers who Hit the Strip will be immersed in a Las Vegas-inspired world of luxury, largess and liberation. Amid an out-of-this-world wonderland of captivating characters and sensationally sexy striptease, there’s no better way to launch into NYC Pride Week.

Broadway Bares: Hit the Strip is produced by and benefits Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. The beloved community celebration serves more than just dynamic dance moves by providing meals and medication, health care and hope to people across the country living with HIV/AIDS and other life-threatening illnesses and personal crises.

The neon lights of Broadway Bares: Hit the Strip will glow for two performances: at 9:30 pm and midnight. Starry special guests will be announced at a later date.
