History

Established in 2006.

The Place of Wonders was one of the first few bars to open on H st. Inspired by old carnivale and sideshow attractions, the bar is themed and surrounded by carnival curiosities. Not only is the Palace of Wonders the only Sideshow museum of oddities will live entertainment and two bars in DC, but we’re the only one in THE WORLD! Thats right, theres no other place like ours! You may have seen our collection in the Baltimore Dime Museum, or maybe you remember our Unicorn that toured for years in Barnum and Baileys Circus. Our Performers travel from all over the country weekly just to thrill and chill your eyes! So step right up and enjoy the show!
