The top-ranking queens from Drag Race México will perform on the most iconic stages in their country!

The Werq the World is one of the biggest tours to feature drag queens from RuPaul’s Drag Race and the international franchises. Since 2017, the tour has made multiple stops in the U.S., Europe, Latin America, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. With the tour returning to Mexico later this week, it will be extra special with queens from Drag Race México joining the cast.

The Mexican leg of the Werq the World tour kicks off on Nov. 17 at the Auditorio Citibanamex in Monterrey. The following day, the tour will visit the Auditorio Telmex in Guadalajara. The final show in Mexico will take place at the emblematic Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City on Nov. 19. 

The top four queens from the first season of Drag Race México will put on a pre-show performance. That line-up includes winner Cristian Peralta, Regina Voce, Gala Varo, and Matraka. Valentina’s co-host Lolita Banana, who also competed on the first season of Drag Race France, will perform as well.

An all-Mexican cast will serve as the opening act for their home-country shows. 

The main cast for the shows in Mexico includes three other beloved Latina drag queens as well.

Puerto Rican queen Miss Vanjie, who competed on seasons 11 and 12 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, will help keep the party going. She will be joined by two queens who got screen time this past year, Mistress Isabelle Brooks and Kandy Muse. The former was a finalist in season 16 while the latter was a runner-up in season eight of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars. The cast is rounded out by Aquaria, Bosco, Daya Betty, and Lady Camden.
