We Denton Drag It returns for its 9th annual celebration, bringing together incredible drag, live music, local performers, and an unforgettable community experience—all with one purpose: raising money for North Texas nonprofits. This 18+ event is produced by Friends With Benefits Denton and is 100% for charity.
Guests can expect an evening packed with local drag talent, special guest performers, music, food, and the energy that has made We Denton Drag It one of Denton's most anticipated annual events. The 2026 show features Vanessa Vanjie Mateo as this year's drag headliner alongside musical guest Dezi 5, with Bella Donna Patron returning as host.

For nearly a decade, Friends With Benefits has used events like this to turn entertainment into impact—raising more than $200,000 for local nonprofits and community causes since 2013.
Whether you're a longtime fan or attending for the first time, expect an evening filled with laughter, unforgettable performances, and a room full of people who believe having fun can also do good.
