Rupaul's Drag Race is a worldwide phenomenon, with many spin-off shows from the US version cropping up down under, in Spain and here in the UK.
The UK version, which has seen three seasons and three crownings, including our very own Lawrence Chaney, has gained in popularity across the years it has aired. Now, the country has its very own DragCon, a convention where fans can come from all across the country to London in order to meet their drag idols.
A host of Scottish drag alumni will be in attendance at DragCon UK in January 2023. Here is all you need to know about the upcoming drag extravaganza.
