Medieval Centre & Red Light District
It might be stretching it to describe a live sex show as 'classy', but this theatre is clean and comfortable and always packed with couples and hen parties. Acts can be male, female, both or lesbian (although not gay – sorry, boys!). Performers demonstrate everything from positions of the Kama Sutra to pole dances and incredible tricks with lit candles.
Tickets are €3 cheaper online.
