*Please note: the years listed are the years I found instances of burlesque, exotic dancers, or go-go dancers (etc.) not years of the venue's operation. I've found over 200 venues in Nebraska and many venues in Iowa. My research has primarily been focused in Nebraska. There is undoubtedly more venues in Iowa that I haven't added to this list.
