Gates open at 4:00 PM, and we'll have MULTIPLE amazing drag shows on the main stage starting at 6:00 PM, including Barbra Streetsand & Summer Orlando, Yasmin Delano, and special guest Jan Sport from Ru Paul's Drag Race!!! Sign up for a chance to win $1,000 in an amateur drag contest! Don't miss the Mermaids, Stormtroopers, VIP room, drag story time, Hey Girl, Hay Ride, Superior Sounds DJs and fireworks to top the night off!
