1. Pick Your Queen (and Your Entertainment Style!)
First things first: what kind of drag queen magic do you want? Drag isn’t a one-size-fits-all wig! There’s a whole spectrum of fabulousness to choose from:
- Drag Bingo: Not your grandma’s bingo! Expect sassy calls, hilarious prizes, and maybe a few cheeky dance breaks. Perfect for a relaxed yet incredibly fun atmosphere.
- Drag Trivia: Challenge your wits and your funny bone! Our queens deliver questions with pizzazz, banter, and a side of fabulous shade. Great for engaging everyone.
- Drag Paint & Sip / Drag & Draw: Unleash your inner artist (and your inner queen!) with a brush in one hand and a drink in the other. Guided by a drag queen artist, these classes are pure creative chaos and laughter.
- Drag Brunch / Dinner: Elevate your meal with live performances, dazzling costumes, and interactive entertainment between courses. Think bottomless mimosas and endless sparkle!
- Drag Soap/Candle Making: Get crafty and a little cheeky! Create your own custom soaps or candles using moulds that can be as risqué or as family-friendly as you like. You’ll leave with not just amazing memories, but also a fantastic goodie bag full of your unique, handmade creations!
- Drag Jewellery Making: Make pieces that your inner drag queen will truly adore! From dazzling earrings and fabulous bracelets to statement necklaces and more, design and craft accessories that scream sparkle and personality. Pro Tip: Think about your audience! Is it a wild hens party or a more reserved corporate event? Our queens can tailor their performance to suit any crowd!
Why run a drag event
- Drag Performances: From lip-sync battles to stand-up comedy and dazzling dance routines, a classic drag show brings high energy and incredible talent.
- Meet & Greet / Roving Host: Want to add sparkle without a full show? A drag queen can welcome guests, pose for photos, and mingle, adding a touch of celebrity glamour.

2. Location, Location, Location
Once you know your drag queen vibe, figure out where to host the fabulousness. The beauty of drag events is their versatility!
- Our Studios/Partner Venues: We have fabulous spots in Sydney CBD (like our new Surry Hills studio for Neon Drag & Draw!) and other locations perfect for public events or private bookings. These venues often come equipped with everything you need.
- Your Chosen Venue: Planning a party at a restaurant, bar, or unique event space? Many drag performances are totally mobile!
- At Your Home: Yes, really! For more intimate gatherings or a surprisingly glamorous house party, a drag queen can absolutely bring the sparkle to your living room.
- On a Boat: For the ultimate Sydney experience, imagine a drag queen hosting your hens party on a gorgeous boat cruising the harbour! (Just sayin’!)
- Remember: Check with your venue about sound systems, staging, and any specific requirements for a performer.

3. The Nitty-Gritty: Booking & Details (Don’t Forget the Glitter!)
So you’ve picked your fun, decided on your spot, now for the easy part!
- Booking Your Queen: Once you’ve chosen your preferred drag event (e.g., Drag Bingo, Drag Paint & Sip) and date, reach out to us! We’ll match you with the perfect queen for your event.
- Guest List & Budget: Get a rough headcount and establish a budget. This helps determine the scale of your event and which options are best.
- Timeline: For private events, book your drag queen as far in advance as possible, especially for peak seasons. Popular queens get snatched up quickly!
- Communicate, Communicate, Communicate: We’ll work with you to understand your event’s specific needs, your guest’s vibe, and any special requests. Want a custom playlist? A shout-out for the bride-to-be? Just ask!
- Decorations: Think about adding some extra flair! Balloons, banners, and themed props (like boas or tiaras) always elevate the experience.
- Food & Drinks: Whether it’s a full meal, canapés, or just BYO, make sure your guests are well-fed and hydrated for maximum fun!

4. One Of The Best Options? Let The Drag Queens Run The Activity
Honestly, this is usually where the whole event changes energy completely.
Because a drag queen hosting an activity isn’t just “someone teaching a class.” It turns the entire thing into entertainment. Suddenly there’s banter, crowd work, singing, roasting, games and everyone getting way more involved than they expected to.
Even the quiet guests usually end up yelling across the room within about 20 minutes.
🎨 Drag Paint & Sip
Probably one of the most chaotic combinations in the best possible way.
Cocktails, paint brushes and a drag queen yelling encouragement while someone accidentally paints their entire canvas neon pink. People get very emotionally attached to their artwork surprisingly fast too.
🕯️ Drag Candle Making
This escalates quickly.
Everyone starts off pretending they’re classy, then suddenly the drag queen is hosting drinking games and someone’s become deeply overconfident with a cocktail shaker.
Drag Soap Making
Creative, social and progressively more ridiculous once the drinks kick in.
These work especially well because people relax fast when they’ve got something hands-on to do, and the drag queens keep the whole room laughing the entire time.
💎 Drag Jewellery Making
This one gets surprisingly competitive.
Someone always starts making a genuinely beautiful piece while another guest creates something completely chaotic and insists it’s “fashion.”
Drag Risqué Clay Classes
Honestly, these are usually complete nonsense by the end of the session.
A drag queen hosting life drawing or clay sculpting somehow turns the whole room into equal parts art class and absolute chaos. Which is exactly why people love it.
Why These Events Work So Well
The activity gives people something to focus on, while the drag queen keeps the atmosphere loud, funny and interactive the whole time.
Nobody’s awkwardly standing around checking their phone wondering when the party is supposed to become fun.
It just happens naturally.

5. Sit Back & Enjoy the Show
With the planning sorted, your only job left is to arrive, relax, and soak up every moment of the dazzling entertainment. Our drag queens are professionals at creating an electrifying atmosphere, ensuring everyone feels included, entertained, and utterly fabulous.
