Winter Is A Drag Ball History
Winter Is A Drag Ball, held annually in various cities, has become a vibrant celebration of drag culture and LGBTQ+ pride.

Initially a small gathering in a community center, it now attracts large crowds, showcasing the talents of both emerging and established drag performers. With roots tracing back to the early 2000s, the event was first conceived as a way to uplift local artists, create a safe space, and highlight the importance of inclusivity during the cold winter months. The concept gained momentum, merging entertainment with advocacy, and started incorporating fundraisers for various LGBTQ+ organizations.
