Welcome to the Wickedest City Burlesque & Variety Fest

A celebration of fearless performance, radical joy, and rich cultural heritage in the heart of Davenport.

Once known as “The Wickedest City in America,”Davenport’s Bucktown district rose to infamy in the early 1900s with its vibrant blend of jazz clubs, speakeasies, brothels, and boundary-pushing entertainment. In a time of prohibition and puritanism, Bucktown was where art, expression, and vice thrived—loud, proud, and unrepentant.
