DRAG'D OUT BEECHWORTH is back for 2023.

Drag'd out is a Queer, inclusive Festival of the Arts. It celebrates all people within the LGBTQI+ Community and their allies. The festival's diversity will bring together people from all walks of life as a positive platform and safe space, enabling these cultures to explore themselves, educate audiences, and spread the love with entertainment. We have engaged a youth component throughout the Festival and our local schools will also be involved, which is very important to us.

The event now in it's second year will be held over the weekend of the 16th, 17th, 18th, and 19th November 2022 in the picturesque township of Beechworth, in Victoria’s High Country.

Supporting local artists, we’ve also invited some of Australia’s headline drag performers and DJs to provide a professional and spectacular four days of drop-dead diva Drag, mixed with a fabulous pop of Disco darlings.

The Festival will kick off with a Welcome to Country then a Welcome party at the memorial hall on the Thursday Night. Spectacular drag shows from our Kings and Queens.

Friday has shows at Billson's Brewery early afternoon.

The Prince of Polyester BOB DOWNE and special guest star Cindy Pastel will entertain at the Memorial with a hilarious show.

The Camp Street Party is back bigger and better than Last Year, dance the night away with Australia's Top Dj's, Drag Queens & Kings, and fire performers, entertaining you til pumpkin o'clock,

The Saturday day component will be roving performances with super camp games such as drag bingo & trivia (more info coming soon there may be a drag bike ride for those enthusiastic visitors?). Saturday Night will be a fabulous spectacular at the Memorial Hall with our headline events DRAG N WINE "our early show” then the same show again DRAG N DINE a cabaret-style Drag show that includes a 2-course dinner and a bunch of chocolates to take away.
