The show’s iconic blend of burlesque and circus artistry promises a night like no other, filled with humour and jaw-dropping talent.
"What a winning combination, the world famous Spiegeltent, HOTA Lakeside, and an unforgettable show. You won’t want to miss this South East Queensland exclusive right here in our own backyard.” said Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate.
Enhancing the experience, the Spiegel Garden will be open by the lakeside for pre-show and post-show festivities, offering a boutique setting for guests to enjoy eats and drinks the unforgettable pop-up event.
