About This Event

Rise's Saturday drag brunch is the weekend reset you actually want to show up for — two seatings at 12:15pm and 2:30pm, strong cocktails, and a rotating cast of queens who know how to work a room. It's the kind of brunch where the entertainment is as good as the food, and the crowd is genuinely here to have fun.
