Get ready to turn heads and raise funds in Milwaukee’s vibrant Walker’s Point neighborhood with the Drag Race & Bar Crawl—an unforgettable day of fierce fashion, delicious drinks, and community love, all in support of Vivent Health.
We’re kicking things off with a campy, fabulous Drag Race like no other. This isn't about speed—it's about style! Participants will run, walk, or strut their way through a fun-sized 0.5K race (only 164 feet!), with costumes, creativity, and charisma taking center stage. Everyone is encouraged to come dressed in drag, and yes—heels are encouraged, but not required. Whether you’re a seasoned queen, a baby drag star, or just love to cheer them on, there’s room for everyone to join the fun. Check-in will take place at POP Bar in Walker's Point, with the Drag Race happening right outside their doors!
After the race, participants will receive a Race Bag and a Bar Crawl Passport. From there, the bar crawl begins across six iconic LGBTQ+ bars in the Walker’s Point area. Each participating bar will feature specialty drink deals, and with every drink purchase, you’ll receive a stamp on your passport. (Don’t worry—non-alcoholic options count too!)
Collect stamps at all six locations and return your completed passport card to be entered into a prize drawing for a chance to win some fabulous goodies!
Best of all, a percentage of proceeds from drink specials and event fundraising will benefit Vivent Health, a leading nonprofit dedicated to providing comprehensive care and support for people living with or affected by HIV. Vivent’s work goes far beyond treatment—they offer medical care, mental health services, pharmacy support, case management, housing assistance, and more, helping individuals live longer, healthier lives with dignity and respect.
Throughout the day, you'll also have the chance to learn more about Vivent’s mission and the crucial role they play in our community—all while celebrating pride, progress, and powerful connections.
Your registration fee includes participation in the Drag Race, a race t-shirt, a .05K bumper sticker, and a wristband to access all of the drink specials during the Bar Crawl supporting Vivent Health!
