The best drag shows in Melbourne
It comes as no surprise that the drag scene is absolutely popping off right now, partly in thanks to the one and only Ru Paul’s Drag Race. With dozens of seasons spanning across multiple countries, the fandom for Ru Paul is at a fever pitch. These days there are plenty of international queens coming over to tour – but don't forget to show our local queens some love, too. While every show is different, the environment is usually much the same; the screeching and screaming as you walk through the venue, the roar of laughter accompanied by a "YAS QUEEN!" to welcome you to the bar and a roster of fabulously dressed queens.
