We are operated by a non-profit organization, Bearded Lady Productions. We produce events for fundraising and fund distribution to local organizations that promote the acceptance and equity of all people, and who encourage the welfare of our community members. Want to help us? DONATE HERE. ​Your contribution is tax-deductible to the extent allowable by law.  

Welcome to Asheville Drag Brunch, the city's beloved showcase of local and visiting professional drag queens. Our lively event is a celebration of diversity, community, and charitable giving. We partner with rotating local 501(c)3 organizations to raise funds for their important causes.

​

Our high-energy shows take place at various venues across town and feature fast-paced, friendly entertainment. A ticket to brunch guarantees you a donation to the charity of the day, a seat at a table or bar, a delicious brunch, and an hour-long drag extravaganza. Don't forget to bring some extra cash to tip the performers - this is a key way they raise additional funds for the local non-profit.

​

Get ready to clap, cheer, and be dazzled by our glamorous queens, who twirl and dance in sky-high heels with spot-on lip-syncing. Our events attract a diverse range of guests of all ages, genders, and races, all there to celebrate special occasions - from birthdays and bachelorette parties to anniversaries and even divorces!

​

Please join us in supporting our community and local non-profits at Asheville Drag Brunch - where the littlest big show in town packs a punch!

​

CAN I BRING MY CHILD?
The entertainment is dancing and singing. The music is the same as you might hear on a public radio station and the costumes are similar to circus acrobats or ice skaters. For all shows, minors/youth must be accompanied by an adult. Some shows are ages 21+, that is noted on the ticketing page.
