Dancer earnings during holiday weeks

My ATF wanted to work Christmas week and New Years week rather than travel to a family reunion. Are these weeks lucrative for dancers?

I'd bet that neighborhood clubs suffer the most during the warm weather holidays. I guess it depends on if your club is located in a "go to" or "getaway from" area...

Dusty, you're lucky. Those are the two holidays (plus Veteran's Day) that I have worked in the past few years and all three seperate days have been consistently lousy for us!

The three day holidays are either feast or famine, depending on the day and the club. I remember on labor day week in a neighborhood club with regular customers. The dancers were all complaining that they they made about of quarter of normal week because everyone had vacationed. It seemed to effect that club severely in particular.

Thanks for the feedback. I think she was just trying to avoid seeing her family over the holidays.

Memorial day and Labor Day are huge money days... I loved working those nights..

I'd say it depends. I don't work on holidays as I prefer to be with family, but I work around the holidays. Most times earnings increase around the holidays, but it depends. Last year earnings stayed the same but this past year they increased.

The day before Christmas is busy in my area. Other than that, most girls I know complain about moey being way down around the holidays. Monday holidays-the ones that generate 3 day weekends-can be very good days

I accually heard one girl say that she made less on holidays like Christmas and New years. She did tell me that she made a lot more money on holidays like Memorial Day, St. Patricks day, Labor Day, and Valentines day was her biggest.

I remember one time going to a club during Memorial Day weekend for a dayshift, before meeting at a club as a customer for nightshift. I definitely thought the dayshift was nicer because a whole lot of dancers were not working but at night there was many dancers working. Granted, the night time ones probably will well enough but I guess it’s the dancers more likely to have a family who are more likely to take off?

I worked a shift once as a newbie dancer during St Patty’s day and that was awful.

I’ve heard a lot of Christmas/new years are either bleh or very well. I never got around to being at a club at that time

It depends. Christmas and NYE, Thanksgiving are good. Better than Halloween or Easter
