Once you experience Oz, you'll
understand all the excitement. The greatest
thing going for Oz is its location. Oz is
located on St. Ann and Bourbon Street which
turns into "Mardi Gras Central"
during the weeks of Carnival and "Southern
Decadence Central" during Labor Day Weekend.
If you get to Oz early, you might be able
to squeeze your way to the rail of their balcony
which overlooks a crowd hungry for beads.
A traditional chant is "show me your
(insert body part here)!" Once the merchandise
is properly displayed, the exhibitor is thrown
a pair of beads. The biggest attraction at
Oz is the dance floor.
The music is hot and the light
show will amaze you. Another amazing thing
to see at Oz are the dancing boys. On the
weekends, OZ has some of the hottest men,
take our word for it,dancing on the bar. The
dancers will inspire you. And, once they get
you worked up enough, you can burn off some
of that energy on the dance floor.

on nearly any night of the week. (Check out
