‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ icon Bianca Del Rio is returning Down Under in 2025 with her latest tour.
Overview
A decade has sashayed away since Bianca Del Rio won the sixth season of RuPaul’s Drag Race. After emerging victorious over Australia’s own runner-up Courtney Act, the drag queen and comedian has been conquering Down Under stages ever since. Among multiple tours over the past ten years, the fabulously quick-witted talent last brought her Hurricane Bianca whirlwind this way in 2022 — and she’ll next break out her devilish snark and timing in 2025.
The global favourite keeps build ing upon her massive past decade or so, with the dimple-cheeked performer doing everything from tours upon tours to hitting the West End stage in the musical Everybody’s Talking About Jamie and also popping up in the film version as well. Then there’s 2016 comedy Hurricane Bianca and its 2018 sequel Hurricane Bianca: From Russia with Hate, plenty more appearances on various Drag Race seasons and specials, web specials, music videos and even an episode of Celebrity Family Feud.
Accordingly, you know what to start watching in preparation for Del Rio’s Dead Inside gigs in Brisbane — although, as you’ll know if you’ve seen her live before, there’s nothing like seeing her in the flesh.
Del Rio’s 2025 visit will break out the cutting insults — plus her larger-than-life persona in general — across two nights from Tuesday, January 28–Wednesday, January 29 at Fortitude Music Hall.
