Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico – Get ready, Puerto Vallarta! The most fabulous night of the year is back – and bigger than ever! Now in its 12th dazzling year, What A Drag! returns to Teatro Vallarta for an unforgettable evening of music, dancing, outrageous comedy, and heartfelt giving – all to support Casa Esperanza Women’s Shelter and Compassion for the Family.
This is the event everyone talks about all year long—a glittering musical comedy where Puerto Vallarta’s bravest straight men squeeze into high heels, sequins, and wigs that defy gravity for one unforgettable night of charity. Watch these local legends undergo amazing transformations – some with surprising grace, others with spectacular wobbling – and deliver performances that’ll leave you laughing, cheering, and maybe even crying a little. It’s proof that with enough makeup, hairspray, and heart, compassion always steals the show.
Don’t wait – tickets are on sale now! Secure your seats early for the best views in the house and help us make this a complete sellout. Every peso raised goes directly to Casa Esperanza, providing safety, shelter, and new beginnings for women and children escaping domestic violence. Last year alone, What A Drag helped fund more than half of Casa Esperanza’s annual budget—proof that laughter and compassion truly change lives.
Join the fun. Make this the best year yet!
