Start your engines for the UK premiere of Drag Race Sverige!

Graham Robson February 8, 2023

Start your engines for the UK premiere of Drag Race Sverige on WOW Presents Plus, debuting Saturday, March 4 at 8.30pm, with a weekly roll out every Sunday at 1am.

The fabulous queen hosting the season is Robert Fux, who will be judging the queens each week through a variety of gag-worthy challenges and runways alongside judges – stand-up comedian and radio and television host Farao Groth and Swedish-Nigerian singer and actress Kayo.

The nine sickening Swedish queens competing for the title of ‘Sweden’s first Drag Superstar’ are Admira Thunderpussy, Almighty Aphroditey, Antonina Nutshell, Elektra, Endigo, Fontana, Imaa Queen, Santana Sexmachine and Vanity Vain. Each week, the queens will compete and based on their performances, the judges will choose the leading queens to advance to the next episode until Sweden’s first Drag Superstar is crowned.
