RuPaul's Drag Race Tickets

It was everything I ever wanted and more. Violet Chachki really set the bar up high with that opening number tho!

One thing I disliked is the fact that I couldn’t purchase my fiancé and I seat together. I had to purchase them separately and they wouldn’t put us together. The lines were extremely LONG but the wait was really SHOT! It moved quickly! Everything seemed organized. Kinda disappointed I couldn’t have a drink while watching the show but everything was perfect. I had a great time.

The show was late, which I understand was not the fault of the performers/event staff but the show felt very unorganized and rushed. Also we couldn’t have drinks in the theatre…even though there were cup holders for every seat. It just is the kind of show that I think people would have enjoyed having drinks while watching.

The show itself was alright, seemed rather average in terms of entertainment value. I think we were expecting more elaborate performances/prop usage etc., but nonetheless the show was still entertaining. The show seemed like it was cut short due to the start time changing from 8 to 9pm. I’m assuming not every ticket holder checked their email to know about the change, or the fact that the venue decided to send out recommended arrival times for each ticket holder. Even following our recommended arrival time which was 8:15-8:30pm (originally was supposed to be an hour earlier but the show time changed), the lineup was beyond manageable. We were in line for over an hour, then, there were more lines to be seated..It was close to 10:30pm before the show began..so if you wanted to grab a drink you were missing the show because those lineups were huge.. and they stopped serving at 11pm so there was essentially no time to get refreshments at all. It was clear that the time it would take to verify everyone’s information to gain entry was grossly underestimated. It’s all trial and error until we all adapt to the new norm, I guess.

Violet was a great hostess, so funny. Priyanka's special appearance was also amazing!

The queens were amazing but in general the production very disorganized. The audio was off. The transition from act to act was very bad. The lines to go into the place were massive, despite having an arrival time.

Very disappointing! So many technical problems..lighting, sound and props. The late start was understandable. The main reason why we went was Alyssa Edwards, she was nowhere to be found and no mention why, even tho she was on the poster. Rosé, Plastique and Violet were good. Overall not a great night.

The queens put on an amazing show! We will definitely look for tickets again next year. Unfortunately the queen we were looking forward to seeing most did not appear at the Toronto show which was a huge disappointment. Would be good to know the specific lineup for each show ahead of time.

The host was terrible and boring. I had to leave early cuz the show started 3 hours late. Waste of money.

The event was suppose to start at 8pm. We were sent an email at 2pm saying that the event would start at 9pm but I don’t think they were prepared for the time it would take to check covid passports as the event didn’t actually start until 10pm. The performers were delayed at the border due to covid restrictions, however this should have been planned for as we are in a pandemic. Rather than apologizing for the late start, Violet blamed Canadian customs. The costumes were amazing, some of the performances were good as well. There were long breaks between performances where the stage was empty, save for stagehands running back and forth frantically. At one point the curtain went down and stayed down for about 5 minutes when there was a video playing on the stage. The event was poorly planned. As the host, Violet was underwhelming. Most times it was obvious that she was stalling because the next performer wasn’t ready. She lacked material to fill the time and would constantly solicit the audience for cheers without providing anything to cheer for. Because the event started so late, we had to leave the event early to catch the last train out of Toronto, missing the finale. Overall, this event was overpriced for the amount of effort went into it. I will say that the backup dancers were the stars of the show and whatever they are getting paid, they deserve more.

I love the queens and they are SUPER talented. However, being on the balcony/mezzanine was not that enjoyable. A lot of us felt excluded from the fun. There were no large screens so we couldn't really see them lip syncing. The only screens were used for background graphics which makes sense, however, there were these prop arches that were covering most of the screen so we couldn't really see much. Seeing reposts of the videos of the event from attendees on the ground floor looked like a completely different concert, and you could really see the work they put into their performances.

It was delayed by two hours. I wish we would’ve been informed. We only knew about the 1-hour delay. I was late for another engagement due to this event. I wouldn’t have gone if I knew it was going to start so late. Was it worth the wait? Not really.

Took girlfriend for the show and her favorite artist (Elissa Edwards) wasn’t even there

What an absolute disaster at Meridian Hall - they had extra time to get us all into the theatre as the curtain time was delayed to 9pm - and it STILL took an hour longer than planned to get everyone in and start the show. The line up outside was a mess, no one was directing people properly, some were given wristbands, some were not, with no rhyme or reason as to why, some were asked for ID with their proof of vaccine, some were waved through in a rush. Once inside the venue decided it would be a good idea to have 2 CASH bars open on the main floor, with the only ATM being outside of the venue. There was only one bar open accepting credit/debit upstairs (seriously Meridian, you couldn't spring for more terminals?) If the goal was to keep people from bringing drinks to their seats so we'd leave our masks on, there could have 1. been proper signage telling people that they couldn't bring drinks in, and 2. open all the bars and allow all payment methods to move the lines quickly- as what ended up happening was large crowds gathering outside of the theatre with no masks on chugging down drinks as quickly as possible. The queens put on an admirable show despite all of the delays with the border and issues with the venue that continued throughout the show - mic problems, lighting problems, set problems - it really was Hell lol - thank goodness Violet was hosting to get us all through it - hope they tighten it up as the tour progresses.

OMG Violet spent half the show ranting about Canadian customs and Air Canada! And then she ran out of material. What the hell does she talk about during a regular show? They started the show about 90 minutes late, blaming customs. Get your paperwork together dorks and this won't happen! AND NO ALYSSA EDWARDS! no announcement, no apology. Not even on Twitter. Other than Aquaria and Rosé, the whole thing was pretty high school. Violet's entrance was pretty epic too. Though her hosting skills are very limited. And everyone was so bored and worn out by the end (almost midnight) they were running for the exits while the queens were still on stage. Seriously, Voss. WTF.

The show was delayed due to a problem at the border (understandable)… but why wouldn’t the venue account for the added time it would take to process 3,000 people and use this delay to their advantage? Instead the pushes back the time of doors, and as a result the show started closer to 10pm. As for the show itself, I wouldn’t pay to see it again. There was barely a plot, and you really only saw each queen (aside from Violet) for maybe 10 minutes.

The queens were all great - loved Aquaria in particular - but expected a more polished show and higher protection value from VOSS. Our tickets were too $$$ to feel like we were sitting through a high school play from the 90s :/

expensive tickets for a low value production stage design and build were fine, but why was the tech crew on stage the entire time building props? seemed un-rehearsed, like the crew and performers didn't really know what was going on strange venue for the type of show the Queen we wanted to see the most was not there Priyanka, Rose, Got Mik, and Aquaria were the only good performances I've put more effort into writing this review than was put into the entire production

First of all, it started 2 hours later. Apparently they blame Air Canada, but no further explanation was given. And no apologies were even heard. From the first queen on stage, there was tech issues, sound was off and speakers not working. There was consistently issues with music, lighting, and so on. Violet was host of the show, and i'm not sure if it was planned or not but she had to transition from one queen to the next, and it was done sooo weirdly. not entertaining at all, and in most cases the crowd was pretty silent. If it wasn't for Rose and Plastique Tiara, the show would have been crap!!! Overall, due to mishaps and not being prepared etc, i would say this show is wayyyyy overpriced for what we got. RuPaul would be extremely unhappy with this!

The show started 2.5 hours late, the host Queen Violet complained about Canada the whole show, the queens seemed with a bad mood, and looks like they did not practice the show. OMG Jaida didn’t even knew the words of her number, Kandy Muse did not wanted to dance. Alyssa Edward, who was on the promotion of the event, never showed up. I’m not being a Karen here, is just that I travelled all my way from Ottawa for the show, and wanted to enjoy it so much but it was full of disappointment. But GottMik, Rose and Aquaria!!! You girls did everything!! I love your attitude your professionalism despite the obstacles you had that day.
