ABOUT

Miss Drag South Africa, is a national pageant where 12 beautiful and intelligent hopefuls from Mzanzi vie for this prestige title.
The black tie event that will take place on Saturday, 8th July 2017 at the Stellenbosch Town Hall; is aimed at bringing glamour, electrifying entertainment and will also highlight issues faced by the LGBTI+ community.

Miss Drag South Africa, is not just a beauty contest, it ethos the Miss World motto “Beauty with a Purpose”, which is a platform to inspire ordinary people to carry out extraordinary things.
Each finalist has to initiate a “Drag with A Purpose Project” which contributes a fundamental percentage towards the outcome of the results. This particular project/s must be completed prior to the Crowning Gala and needs to advocate the advancement of LGBTQA+ rights / drag culture, serve as agents for change and uplift their communities by serving as positive role models.

This pageant is also a vehicle to educate our communities to respect and show tolerance towards people from diverse sexual orientation, cultural, religious - and racial backgrounds and I am of the opinion that deconstructing and breaking down the barriers of shame and intolerance, are important steps in creating a just and equitable society
