HighWire’s Drag Brunch returns Sunday, June 29, bringing vibrant entertainment and community spirit to The Grand Tucson. For the first time, the event takes place indoors, ensuring guests enjoy a climate-controlled experience without sacrificing the show’s signature flair.
Guests will enter through HighWire for a cocktail reception beginning at 10:30 a.m., followed by a seated brunch and live drag performances. The event, open exclusively to guests 21 and older, runs until 3 p.m.
Each year, the brunch sells out quickly thanks to its dynamic cast and uplifting atmosphere. Moving the festivities inside marks a significant upgrade while keeping the essence of the event intact.
The all-you-can-eat brunch buffet includes French toast casserole, scrambled eggs, biscuits and gravy, country potatoes, bacon, fresh fruit, assorted pastries, and more. Coffee, iced tea, and soda are included with each ticket. Alcoholic beverages, energy drinks, and premium bottled options are available for additional purchase, with a full bar featuring HighWire Craft Spirits.
Importantly, a portion of the event proceeds supports the Southern Arizona AIDS Foundation (SAAF), reinforcing the brunch’s community-focused mission.
Now in its annual return, the HighWire Drag Brunch continues to deliver an unforgettable blend of show-stopping drag, exceptional food, and strong community engagement. “No more patio umbrellas and misters, no m’am!” organizers affirm, highlighting this year’s indoor venue upgrade.
Guests are encouraged to arrive early for the pre-show cocktail reception and to secure a seat before the queens take the stage. With limited capacity and high demand, early ticket purchase is strongly recommended. Use promo code EARLYBIRD for $10 off until June 15.
