When choosing a city that is a good location for male strippers to find work, all I have to do is think about my travels and the male strip clubs that I have visited.
I've selected 7 cities that I think make good locations for male strippers to find work. My choices are based on population, travelers to the city, club facilities, and the fans of male strippers. If you were moving to a new city to find work as a male stripper, where would you want to go? Let me answer that question for you.
Atlanta, GA
According to Wikipedia the estimated population in 2017 was 486,290. Atlanta is the 38th most-populous city in the United States. The potential for a strong customer base that likes male strippers is there.
Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson Airport is the busiest airport in the world. The annual world traffic report published by the Airports Council International (ACI), Hartsfield-Jackson served over 107 million passengers in 2018. Many passengers will be passing through but others will be staying in the city and looking for entertainment.
I have been to two clubs in Atlanta that featured male strippers. Swinging Richards is a fully nude male strip club that has been at the top of my list of U.S. male strip clubs since my first visit many years ago. I have been to BJ Roosters only once but had a fun time. Both clubs cater to a gay male audience.
The ladies can enjoy male review shows on Friday and Saturday nights. Hunk-O-Mania Atlanta has two shows each night. They also advertise that if you can't make it to the show to get a Hunk-To-Go.
Black Diamond Entertainment presents a two-hour male strip show. They advertise themselves as "A high end black male strip club of black male strippers for women." Voted Atlanta's best Bachelorette Party and Girls Night Out for 13 years running.
Columbus, OH
According to worldpopulationreview.com, Columbus had an estimated population of 879,170 in 2018 which makes it the 15th largest city in the United States.
I have observed personally the loyalty that customers have for the male strippers who perform in the Columbus area clubs. I have been to several of them myself and tipped the dancing boys.
The venues I am listing cater to a gay male audience. The male strippers who perform in these clubs are a mix of straight and gay males. The shows are hosted by various local popular drag queens.
You can find a club that features male strippers almost any night of the week in Columbus, OH. Some of my favorites include O'Connors Club 20, Axis Nightclub, Boscoe's Bar, and Tremont Lounge.
There are many more similar clubs in Columbus, OH. For a more thorough listing with contact information, see the Males In Motion Club list for Ohio.
There is a loyal following of male strippers in Columbus, OH which means the shows will have a full audience. In several of the clubs the male strippers work the crowd by going into the audience during their shows.
If they like a particular male stripper, the Ohio fans will tip well. Contact the bar or club to find out how you could become a male stripper at their club.
Ft. Lauderdale, FL
The population of Ft. Lauderdale, FL is estimated to be over 178,000 according to wordpopulationreview.com.
I've selected Ft. Lauderdale for this list because it is a vacation destination. Not only is it a major Spring Break destination for college students, it is also a popular vacation spot.
According to the Ft. Lauderdale city website, over 13 million visitors descend upon the city each year.
There are four main male strip clubs in the area. LeBoy and Boardwalk Bar cater to a gay male audience and are open 7 days a week. Johnsons also caters to a gay male audience but is closed on Mondays. The other is LaBare which serves a female audience with a male review show Wednesday through Sunday.
Ft. Lauderdale is less than an hour north of Miami providing a second major location for work within driving distance. Both LaBare and Hunk-O-Mania have locations in Miami.
Las Vegas, NV
This list would be incomplete without adding "Sin City". The population of Las Vegas Metropolitan area was estimated at over 2 million in 2019 according to worldpopulationreview.com. Another 43 million tourists visit the city each year and the number is growing.
Google Trends website lists Nevada as the top U.S. location where the phrases "male stripper" or "male strippers" are searched on Google.
The two main options for male strippers are Piranha Nightclub and male revues. Piranha Nightclub serves the gay community with hot, barely clothed go-go boys. I follow several of these on social media.
The big daddies of the Male Revue shows are Chippendales and Thunder From Down Under. Chippendales performs in the Rio Hotel & Casino. Thunder From Down Under performs at the Excalibur Hotel & Casino. Both shows are tailored for the ladies.
There are other male revues that are lesser well known. These include Men Of Sapphire entertaining the ladies on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Kings of Hustler perform Thursday through Sunday nights. Magic Mike Live performs at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
Los Angeles, CA
It 2017 it was estimated that over 18 million people live in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, and 4 million of them lived in the city of Los Angeles making it the second largest city in the United States behind New York city.
There are more clubs featuring male strippers and go-go boys than would be possible to list in this blog. The area of West Hollywood is the central area for gay clubs. Micky's, Fubar, The Chapel at The Abbey, and Revolver Video Bar are just a few in this area.
In the greater Los Angeles area I recommend you take a look at Club Chico, Club Cobra and 340 Nightclub. There are many, many more gay clubs in the Los Angeles area that feature male strippers. Check out Males In Motion's club listings for the area.
Hunk-O-Mania has a male review show for the ladies in the L.A. area. The Hollywood Men male review has been around since 1995.
There is a lot of competition for male stripper and go-go boy jobs in this area. This is after all the home of Hollywood. There is an abundance of good looking men with chiseled abs and muscled bodies. And many of these are also talented dancers.
New York, NY
New York city is the largest city in the United States. According to censusreporter.org there are over 20 million people living in the New York city metropolitan area. As you might guess, there are a lot of clubs that feature male strippers.
Focusing mainly on Manhattan, I can make a few recommendations for gay clubs that feature male strippers. Check out Pieces Bar, The Cock Bar, Ty's, and Evolve Lounge.
There are three main male revue shows for the ladies. Manhattan Men Male Revue performs regularly in the NYC area as well as travel to various parts of the U.S. The Times Square Hunks perform Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. They also advertise to Rent-A-Hunk if you can't make it to the show. Hunk-O-Mania performs Thursday through Sunday.
Phoenix, AZ
The population of Phoenix in 2017 was over 1.6 million. It is estimated to grow to 2.2 million by 2020. And by 2030 the metropolitan area is expected to reach 6.3 million. (worldpopulationreview.com).
There are two main agencies that provide most of the male dancers to the Phoenix area gay clubs. The Sinful Studs and the Wild Men Of The West Productions keep the clubs stocked with hot male dancers that fit the wishes of the patrons of the specific bars and clubs.
Outside of the agencies there is Dick's Cabaret, a fully nude male strip club that caters mainly to gay men. I have been to Dick's a few times and have had a lot of fun each time.
Sinful Studz provides the dancers at Charlie's Phoenix which is one of my favorite clubs in Phoenix. The dancers are all hired to be go-go boys. I have celebrated my birthday at Charlie's Phoenix and hope to do so again in the future.
I did not find any male reviews for the Phoenix area. A Google search produced generic male stripper ads for Phoenix but you can search other cities and the same ads will come up. This let's you know they are not located in Phoenix.
If you are wanting to dance in the Phoenix area, start with contacting Sinful Studs and Wild Men Of The West for openings. If you have a great look and tight body and enjoy being nude before customers, apply at Dick's Cabaret.
Final Thoughts
If you are interested in dancing for private parties do a Google search for male stripper agencies adding the name of the city on the end. For example: male stripper agencies Atlanta.
If you are a seasoned performer or if you have built a body to become a male stripper, I recommend that you check into the Adonis Lounge. This agency provides dancers at gay venues in New York City, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Phoenix.
Another good contact for the NYC area is Darwin Tejeda of Principito Presents. He is a producer and promoter of various shows and events in the area. Contact him through his Facebook page.
For the Northeast, I have two recommendations that are not in the NYC area. First, X-Room at Mardi Gras in Springfield, MA is a full-nude male strip club worth checking out for work. And The Men Of Eden hire male strippers for Connecticut and other areas in the Northeast.
