HB 2407 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Establishes provisions relating to adult cabaret performances, including the offense of engaging in an adult cabaret performance

HB 2407 defines key terms related to adult entertainment venues and performances in Missouri. It establishes "adult cabaret" as businesses (like nightclubs) where performers regularly appear in partial nudity or seminudity during duties, and "adult cabaret performance" as similar acts outside such venues (e.g., topless or exotic dancing). The bill restricts exterior advertising for these businesses, prohibiting signs within one mile of state highways except for two permitted signs on the premises. It directly affects businesses operating adult entertainment venues and performers, creating clear legal definitions to regulate their operations and location restrictions.
