RuPaul’s DragCon UK 2020: meet the queens

The popular US competition show, RuPaul’s Drag Race, made its way across the pond earlier this year for its UK debut. The season is already well underway with the finale on 21 November. 

This season of Drag Race features queens from all over the UK – with names like Baga Chipz, Divina De Campo and Sum Ting Wong. The contestants have battled it out in drag-related challenges for a grand prize of their own limited TV series. 

Season one of Drag Race UK has attracted 6.5 million viewers so far with more weeks to go. Season two of the UK’s show has also been announced for early next year.

The popularity of the season has caused a stir among viewers about who will be making an appearance at RuPaul’s DragCon UK – a drag queen convention with two days of art, drag and all things pop culture – on 18th January – 19th January 2020 at the Olympia London. 

The entire UK cast from season one is set to be at the event as well as special appearances by US drag queens and celebrities. 

The Emmy Award-winning host, RuPaul, announced the roster on the website and via the convention’s official Instagram account. 

Here are some of the announced queens so far:
