Old Town, New Queens 2026: Giants at Werk

Saturday, June 13, 2026

Hard hats off. Crowns on.

Giants of Drag are clocking in to werk.

On Saturday, June 13, 2026, Old Town, New Queens returns to Britannia Mine Museum for a night like no other. Inspired by the Museum's summer exhibit, Giants at Work: Big Jobs, Bigger Machines, this year's edition brings together 14 of the most electrifying performers from across British Columbia to take over Mill No. 3, an enormous 100-year-old copper concentrator carved into the mountainside.
From high voltage musical queens to campy comedy kings, non binary drag things to disco divas, this is drag the way it was meant to be experienced.

Iconic. Unstoppable. Unforgettable.
