Advertising Space

Advertise with us in the 2026 Highway to Hull Burlesque Weekender programme.

Highway to Hull is a non profit festival dedicated to celebrating burlesque history, honouring our trailblazers, and supporting the future of the art form. A portion of festival proceeds is donated to the Burlesque Hall of Fame Museum, and another portion supports UK performers applying to BHoF.

We welcome adverts from businesses, performers, producers, and creatives who support the burlesque community. All adverts are reviewed and must align with the ethos and values of Highway to Hull. We reserve the right to decline adverts that are not a good fit for the festival.

Our printed festival programme is in the hands of performers, producers, students, audience members, and burlesque lovers from across the UK and beyond throughout the weekend. It is also shared as a digital programme so your advert continues to be seen after the event.

If you run a business, produce shows, sell costumes, teach classes, or want to promote a project, this is a lovely way to support the festival and get your work in front of the community.

Advert prices:
Full page A5 £50
Half page A6 £35

Spaces are limited and allocated on a first come basis.
