Courtesy Photo Pin-Ups on Tour are coming to the Alpena VFW 2496 Hall on Saturday, July 25. Tickets are available now, and veterans can attend for free.

Pin-Ups on Tour, a nationally touring WW2 style burlesque and variety show based out of Las Vegas, will be performing on Saturday, July 25, at VFW Post 2496 in Alpena. The shows are free for our military, both veterans and active duty.

COVID-19 prevention policies will be implemented during the events for the health and safety of performers and audience members.

Vintage attire is encouraged for a night of stepping back into time. This show is for ages 18 and older.

Tickets are $20 in advance online for the public, and $25 at the door. Reserved seating is $35 to $50 per person. Proceeds support hospitalized veterans.

The group works to recreate the bawdy fun of vaudevillian theaters so popular across America during and post-WWII. Veterans and active duty service members always attend for free as the group’s way of saying “thank you for your service.”

As part of its mission to make veterans smile, these performers bring a family-friendly version of our show and gifts to hospitalized veterans across America who aren’t able to make it out to their events.

Pin-Ups On Tour’s goal is to recreate the magic of the Hollywood Canteen that operated during the 1940s as a club offering dancing, drinks and entertainment for servicemembers, usually on their way overseas. The evening will feature dancing showgirls, comedy, variety acts, soulful lounge singers, vintage tray girls and more than a few surprises. With the live entertainment and vintage atmosphere, guests will feel like they stepped into another era.

Since the group first started entertaining veterans in 2015, Pin-Ups on Tour has performed in 45 states, donated over 3,500 tickets back to our military heroes, and has been able to entertain close to 3,000 active duty and veteran service members in U.S. VA Hospitals. In these past few years Pin-Ups on Tour has donated over $50,000 in free veteran tickets and monetary donations to nonprofits such as AmVets, Heels for Combat Boots, Recon Sniper Foundation, Pin-Ups for Vets, American Legion posts and VFW posts.

The group’s heartfelt and glitzy work has been featured on The Huffington Post, the American Legion Magazine, the Hallmark Channel, ABC News, Good Day LA, Good Morning San Diego, Fox News, Larry King, KTLA, Idiotest, We Are the Mighty, The Tampa Bay Times, and the Game Show Network.
