Lady Cummeal and Hunky Dory team up with the LUSH cast for a Pride-season Family Feud showdown — free to attend, packed with the kind of competitive chaos that makes these nights so fun. It's the perfect excuse to show up early, grab a drink, and settle in for some seriously entertaining drag comedy.

Wednesday nights at The Saloon belong to Mother Pearl and the crowd that shows up for free bingo with personality. It's the kind of low-key, reliably fun event that reminds you why neighborhood spots matter — good vibes, no cover charge, and a host who knows how to keep things moving.

Wednesday nights at LUSH mean drag bingo with a rotating cast of your favorite performers calling the balls, cracking jokes, and handing out cash prizes. Each week features a different artist or genre for inspiration, so there's always a reason to come back. Doors open at 4pm, bingo starts at 6:30pm, and seating is first come, first served (RSVP for priority). Best part: proceeds go straight to the Aliveness Project.

Wednesday nights at The Saloon belong to performers hungry for the spotlight—local talent takes over the stage competing for a $100 cash prize.

Two Twin Cities institutions collide for one night only: 15 years of Martina's Broadway Cabaret meets 8 years of Queer Circus's variety shows. Expect drag, burlesque, aerial performers, live music, and the kind of theatrical energy that only happens when you combine the magic of Broadway with the raw power of circus performance. VIP tickets get you stage-side seats and a photo op with the cast.
