What is Global 'drag?

Global drag is when people all around the world dress up and perform in fun, creative ways, like a big, worldwide costume party.

Imagine you're playing dress-up with your best friends at recess. You all pick cool clothes and accessories to look different or even like someone else. Now picture that same game happening on every playground across the globe, from New York to Tokyo to Sydney. That's global drag!

What Makes It Special

In a normal dress-up game, you might just wear your mom’s scarf or your brother’s hat. But in drag, people use all sorts of colorful clothes and makeup to look completely different, like turning into a superhero, a princess, or even a dinosaur.

Sometimes, people do this for fun, sometimes for a show, and sometimes they do it to express who they are inside. It's not just about looking fancy, it’s about feeling free and being bold.

So next time you play dress-up, remember: you're part of a global drag party!
