Big Hair, Bigger Energy: Celebrate Pride at These Corpus Christi Drag Brunches
May 22, 2025Can You Really Do Pride Without a Drag Brunch?
June is almost here, and with it comes a dazzling array of events celebrating LGBTQIA+ identity, artistry, and community. At the heart of it all? The drag brunch—bold, vibrant, and fabulously unmissable.
More than just mimosas and makeup, drag brunches offer a joyful space to gather with friends, support local performers, and celebrate the power of self-expression. In Corpus Christi, they’ve become a highlight of Pride Month, blending glamour, camp, and community into an experience like no other.
This year, Pride Corpus Christi is thrilled to spotlight three community-organized drag brunches that are raising the bar (and the heels) all across town.
