The Only ALL-BIPOC King Show in the Bay
This drag show and collective started as a dream, coming out of a desire to showcase more BIPOC & inclusive drag, especially in the drag king sphere, which is already a marginalized group in the drag & performance art world. ROYALES debuted at El Rio in February 2023.

ROYALES Calendar Project
To fundraise for an accessibility fund at ROYALES, we produced a calendar which sold for $20 and included the faces of 12 different BIPOC drag kings. Thanks to the support of the community, we were able to raise $571 to support performers with disabilities and those traveling from long distances to perform with us.
We are now fundraising with our 2025 calendar! Place your order here.
