An Australian heatwave is coming to Kelowna in October

KELOWNA – A heat wave is coming to Kelowna, and it's bringing multiple muscular Australian men.

The internationally acclaimed male strip show, Australia’s Thunder From Down Under, will be hitting the Kelowna Community Theatre stage October 19, 2017. The group is making their stop in Kelowna as part of their Outback Fantasy 2017 Tour.

“Dynamic dance routines, gymnastics, break dancing, colorful costumes, humor and hard bodies all add up to Thunder being a unique experience,” said the group’s press release.

The adult show has been preforming to sold out crowds on the Las Vegas Strip for the past 16 years.

For three consecutive years the show has been Named Best Male Strip Show by the Las Vegas Review Journal and the Best Adult Attraction by AOL’s City Guide.
