Since RuPaul’s Drag Race popular conventions aren’t happening right now due to the Covid Crisis, the folks at Producer Entertainment Group got together with digital concert service Sessions to create a two weekend online drag extravaganza featuring many of your favorite drag superstars.
DIGITAL DRAG FEST 2021 is scheduled to happen over two weekends: May 21 to May 23 and May 28 to May 30 with individual shows featuring each star for roughly a 45 to an hour long set. Stars signed so far include:
Alaska Thunderfuck, Cheryl Hole, Denali, Divina De Campo, Ginger Minj, Jackie Beat & Sherry Vine, Jackie Cox, Jan Sport, Jimbo, Jinkx Monsoon, Jujubee, Latrice Royale, Manila Luzon, Miz Cracker, Monét X Change, Nicky Doll, Sederginne, Sharon Needles, Tina Burner, Trixie Mattel and Utica
Each 45-60 minute show will be a once in a lifetime experience, which will feature singing, comedy, lip syncing and drama as some of the elements that will be showcased in this festival. Tickets will be extremely limited, to keep audience sizes small and the experience intimate, with opportunities to interact with artists, tip them, and potentially be awarded prizes and giveaways. Ticket prices for each show will start at an economical $15.00 USD per household. Shows will be suitable for all ages, though parental discretion is advised.

About the festival, Alaska Thunderfuck said – “While we are well on our way to getting back to a sense of normalcy, traveling to see your favorite entertainer and gathering in person to see a show is still limited. Luckily through the miracle of technology, we can bring together an audience from all over the world, and connect through our love of Drag, music, and creativity.”“Digital Drag Fest 2021 is so important right now, because it brings your favorite drag artists right to your living room. At home entertainment is crucial at a time where people yearn for moments of joy. Digital Drag Fest 2021 does just that; it spreads JOY! I call it, ‘DRAG MAGIC!’”- purrs Jujubee While Divina De Campo states – “So excited to be bringing DDC back for the DDF while we are all in the PannyD. We might not be together physically but, let’s party with each others celestial bodies via satellite.”
