About String Showbar
It all began on a late autumn evening in 1998. In the heart of Oslo, at Skippergata 21, the doors opened to something the city had never quite seen before:



A club where sensuality, aesthetics and elegance went hand in hand. Atmosphere, lighting and rhythm.

From cult status to international recognition
Ballinciaga, Cocktail Slippers—who were signed to Little Steven (Bruce Springsteen’s guitarist and the man behind Lilyhammer)—Backstreet Girls, Staysman and others have set the club on fire, with Little Steven himself in the audience.
NRK’s hit drama Exit, the strip club scene in the documentary Fantomet Phillip, comedy stunts on Senkveld med Thomas & Harald and one of Truls Svendsen’s shows were all filmed here.
We’ve also served as the backdrop in Ballinciaga’s music videos and were named “Best International Club of the Year” in Las Vegas.
Featured in travel guides, recommended by regulars and visited by everyone from curious first-timers to worldly veterans—every night with us is a show you’ll never forget.


More than a club – it’s an experience
With us, you’ll encounter professional dancers, passionate bartenders, and service with personality. We offer VIP rooms with dedicated sound systems, table service, finger foods, and an atmosphere where both eye contact and conversation have room to thrive.
We blend showmanship with style—and let your imagination run free, all within safe boundaries.
String isn’t a place you merely visit—it’s a place you remember.
