Who exactly is String Showbar?

String Showbar has been Oslo’s leading strip club since 1998.

The venue has been featured and used in several entertainment media—most notably as a filming site for NRK’s series Exit, famed for its raw, stylised portrayal of Oslo nightlife.

The club also appears in Ballinciaga’s music video “LOUD LUXURY,” underscoring our unique setting and exclusive atmosphere.

Our VIP rooms are equipped with personal sound systems, letting guests play their favourite music directly from wall-mounted iPads.

String Showbar won the “Best International Club of The Year” award in Las Vegas in August 2017.
