Sat 4/12 @ 7:30PM
Akron Pride is once again holding its annual Drag Pride Battle, getting people revved up for the main event in August and raising some money for it.
Northeast Ohio drag performers Brionna Brooks and Monica Masters will be hosting the event, taking place at the Akron Civic Theatre. Special guest Angeria Paris Van Michael’s RuPaul’s Drag Race & RuPaul’s Drag Race: All Stars will be on hand as the competitors swagger and sashay across the stage hoping to be the next APF Drag Entertainer of the Year for 2025. Also on hand: last year’s winner Kardi Redd Diamond — so this year’s competitors can see what they need to aspire to.
VIP doors open at 5pm for the VIP meet & greet at 5:30pm. General admission ticketholders get in at 6:30 for the 7:30 show. Get tickets here.
