DRAGAROUND - Mardi Gras 2026

DRAGAROUND

Drag. Crawl. Vote!

Sydney’s first-ever DAYTIME drag pub crawl is here.

On Saturday, 14th Feb (1:30pm-7:00pm), you’ll join a rotating crawl through Stonewall, Oxford Hotel, Colombian Hotel, The Burdekin & Universal, each hosting a unique drag performance. By the end of the day, you’ll have seen all four Drag Performers slay the stage, and it’s up to YOU to decide who takes home the crown and a $2,000 prize.

Here’s how it works:
🍺 5 Venues — iconic pubs on Oxford St
👑 4 Drag Artists — Bettie Blackheart, Dolly Pocket, Eli Crawford & April-Mae June

🏆 1 Winner (💸 $2,000 prize) — chosen by the audience^
🎟️ 1 Ticket* — only $44.99 + bf

*The ticket also includes one drink on arrival.

Ticket Info: What colour should I buy?

All tickets are the same price, only the colour differs.

The colour is not associated with or lock you to any specific performer.

Each colour represents the group's starting venue for the crawl (we will let you know the venue closer to the date). Every group will rotate through ALL 4 venues, and you will enjoy ALL 4 performances.

If you’re coming with friends, make sure everyone buys the same colour ticket to stay together. Simply choose the colour that resonates more with you! As we always encourage you to wear something of the color of your team! 🩷 💙 💜 ❤️

Coming solo? No problem! You will meet plenty of Drag art enthusiasts to celebrate with you.

If you are happy with any color, we will select the group for you! :)

DRAGAROUND isn’t just a pub crawl, it’s a love letter to drag. It’s a celebration of community, and a chance to enjoy daytime fun like never before!

💃 Join the crawl. See the Drag Artists. Cast your vote.

Terms and conditions:

(1) This is a +18 event only

(2)^The token to vote for your favorite artist will ONLY be given during check-in at the first venue. Do not worry if you are running late; please join the fun at any point of the crawl. In the name of fairness and good drag Karma, we do need to keep things even for all contestants, and the voting tokens will not be handed later on the day.
