Will Cape Town Pride break drag queen world record?
Cape Town Pride is planning to break the six-year-old world record for the most drag queens in a stage performance. Thanks to RuPaul’s Drag Race, drag artists have exploded into mainstream culture.
But how often do you get 80 drag performers on stage at the same time? The answer up to now is, never! That could be about to change when Cape Town Pride attempts to make history by breaking the Guinness World Record for “Largest Drag Artist Stage Show”.
This record is currently held by Toronto Pride in Canada, which in July 2016 managed to get 73 drag queens and kings lined up for the record-breaking performance.
This distinction was previously held by the Gay Softball World Series (GSWS) Columbus, which organised a show of 55 drag artists at an Ohio club in 2014.
