"Chicago Is a [Digital] Drag Festival", a two-hour jam-packed live-stream hosted by Chicago's own Shea Couleé, will take place Tuesday, June 30, at 8 p.m. CT.
Couleé is currently a competitor on "RuPaul's Drag Race All Star's 5" and the face of Goose Island and DoStuff Media's “Drag A Beer" campaign.
Some of the other personalities slated to appear/perform are The Vixen, Detox, Dorian Electra, DJ Jasmine Infiniti, Lucy Stoole, Mimi Marks, Bambi Banks-Coulee, Abhijeet and KC Ortiz. Special guests will include Dida Ritz, Joan Jett Black, Theo Germaine and Ruff 'n Stuff, among others.
"Chicago is a Drag Festival" made its debut in 2019 as Chicago's first and only festival dedicated to drag. This year's event was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. Organizers said they are working directly with Eventbrite to send refund options to all ticket holders, including donations and transfers to future events.
There is a suggested fee of $10 to benefit Brave Space Alliance.
