Erotic City

THE P-TOWN HAPS

God damn, we’re getting old! Exotic is now 32 as of this issue! That marks us as the city’s oldest monthly magazine and second-oldest monthly publication (shout out to The Asian Reporter, which is about 34 years old now). And if you can believe it, we’re the city’s fourth-oldest publication of any frequency and format. We wear it like a badge because publishing a physical publication in this era is a very difficult feat and something we couldn’t do without our supporters.

We thank and appreciate all advertisers who have supported us over the last 31 years, as well as our loyal industry workers and patrons, who also value our publication and the service we provide to the industry. We love you, and thank you for your support! Without you, we would have no reason to exist.

Guess what?! We’re not the only ones celebrating an anniversary this month. Three of our favorite strip clubs are celebrating birthdays this month, as well! Happy 19th anniversary to Cabaret and Hawthorne Strip, and happy 12th anniversary to Kit Kat Club! Make sure you stop by and help them celebrate! Friday, July 11, and Saturday, July 12, are the nights to stop by Kit Kat, as it's their official 12th Anniversary Party Weekend! See you there!

This is the first month that we have more strip club birthdays than performer birthdays! Stop by Union Jacks on Saturday, July 12, for Dream’s Birthday Party. Happy Birthday from Exotic!

As far as other industry events and parties, Stars Cabaret (Bridgeport) will have their Fourth of July Party on Friday, July 4. Then, on Tuesday, July 8, swing by Union Jacks for their Industrial Night Kick Off, and then back to Union Jacks on Wednesday, July 16, for their EDM Night! On Saturday, July 19, there's a Luau Party at Stars Cabaret (Bridgeport), so break out your best Luau apparel and get in free!

Grunge fan? Make sure to stop by Union Jacks on Thursday, July 24, for their Grunge Night. Next, head to Stars Cabaret in Salem for Tiki Paradise on Saturday, July 26. Make sure to bring your motorcycle or car to The Lounge on Saturday, July 26, for The Wettest, Wildest Motorcycle & Car Wash All Summer! Then, take that shiny bike over to AJ's Gentlemen's Club on Sunday, July 27, for their Bike Night & Wet T-shirt Contest! Lastly, on Thursday, July 31, head to Union Jacks for their Island Beach Babes Night to close the month off right!

Wrapping up events for July, Dick Hennessy’s 14th Annual Vagina Beauty Pageant starts this month! We have all the important dates listed to the right, and make sure you check out the event spread on page 16.

POLEROTICA 2025

The Pacific Northwest's original and largest pole competition came to a close last month over Memorial Day weekend. The night was filled with countless outstanding performances, and it was truly a memorable evening! A very special congratulations goes to Polerotica 2025 Champion Passion, representing Guilty Pleasures. Don’t miss our interview with her

We’d also like to recognize the amazing performances by Jess from Cabaret, placing 2nd, and Belladonna from Guilty Pleasures, placing 3rd! We are truly blessed to see all of their outstanding and unique performances, and we deeply respect all the hard work that goes into the entire process!

Check out the following two pages to see photos of all the entertainers in action during their performances at the Polerotica 2025 Finals.

What's next, you ask? We'll see you this fall for Miss Exotic Oregon 2026!
