Drag brunches, circuit nights & every party worth knowing in Seattle — in your inbox every week.
Most of Seattle's drag happens on Capitol Hill, and it runs from free bar shows to a ticketed theater. Unicorn puts on a free drag cabaret every Friday and free drag bingo every Tuesday. Queer/Bar's wave/ength runs on select Friday nights, usually for a $10 presale. Le Faux stages full productions inside Julia's on Broadway on Friday and Saturday nights. And Kremwerk, down the hill in the Denny Triangle, hosts Kings, a monthly drag king show, plus a steady run of one-off drag parties.
This guide covers where to see drag shows in Seattle after dark: the standing weekly and monthly shows, what each venue publishes about doors, showtimes, cover and age, and how to put a night together. For the daytime version, see our companion guide to drag brunch in Seattle.
What to know before you go
- Several bar shows are free. Unicorn's Lashes Cabaret and Drag Queen Bingo and Pony's Queen4Queen have no cover. Queer/Bar's wave/ength is $10 presale or $15 at the door. Le Faux is ticketed: $28 general for the Friday and Saturday shows and $15.95 for the monthly Wicked Oz, plus fees.
- Age rules differ. Unicorn and Queer/Bar are 21+ with ID. Le Faux's FAQ admits guests 18 and older with government photo ID, though its Barbie World Y2K page says 21+.
- Showtimes are early by nightlife standards. Le Faux shows start at 7 PM, Unicorn's cabaret at 7:30 PM, Queer/Bar's at 9 PM, so a two-venue night is realistic.
- Tipping varies. Queer/Bar's FAQ recommends bringing dollars for the performers. Le Faux sells "Le Faux Bucks" and does not accept cash tips.
Pro Tip
Friday is the night to do two shows: Unicorn's free Lashes Cabaret at 7:30 PM on Pike Street, then wave/ength at Queer/Bar at 9 PM, around the corner on 11th Avenue between Pike and Pine.

I'm Robbie, the founder of Out x Out. I'm from Minneapolis, though I'm spending 2026 building this community from the road — somewhere between South America and Asia. The idea for Out x Out came from a trip to Berlin, where the gay nightlife calendar was years ahead of ours: you could see not just where to go out, but which night to go — so naturally I wanted that kind of insider info for every city in the US (and beyond... eventually). I'm more of a behind-the-scenes type, but the whole point of this is connection: I'd take one real one over a hundred surface-level ones, and I'm trying to build that for the community, city by city.
