Racers, start your engines, and may the best Down Under drag queen win!

Following a smash hit first season, Stan, the home of RuPaul’s Drag Race in Australia, today announced that a second season of RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under will make its bold and extravagant return to our screens in 2022, with host RuPaul, a.k.a the mother of all drag queens, along for the ride.

After a stellar first season which saw Kita Mean take out the top honours amid an incredible line-up of queens and celebrity guests including Kylie Minogue, Dannii Minogue and Taika Waititi, it will be up to a new batch of the fiercest drag queens from Australia and New Zealand to fight tooth and nail to be crowned winner in 2022.
