From huge clubs to intimate cafes, there’s a drag show to suit every taste. Here are seven of the best places to see drag shows in Munich.
Munich, on the outside, may not seem like the most inclusive city in Europe, however, underneath it’s conservative exterior, its drag scene is thriving. Whether you want a small unique venue, a big themed party or even a classic drag brunch, we have all of those in more for you below!
Super Garry Klein
Every Wednesday night the Harry Klein club in Munich transitions into Super Garry Klein, where you can come to feel the bass, dive into great visuals and enjoy a midnight performance from one of the best local drag queens or kings.
Let us be queer, open minded, visible, peaceful and keep the gender equality is the motto Garry Klein goes by, and we can confirm from multiple visits, no matter who you are or who you are with, the crowd there is always ready to share the fun.
We’d mainly recommend this location for fans of techno, although they have several dance spaces, the music focuses on their target genre. However, they do host an annual Queen of the Night Drag competition that is one of our favourite yearly events to check out.
When: Every Wednesday starting at 10 P.M
Where: Harry Klein
Pink Paradise at Senatore
Senatore bar we could recommend for many reasons, but one special day of the week we drag fans really enjoy is it’s Pink Paradise Wednesdays.
Every Wednesday beginning at 8 in the evening, Senatore bar gives over it’s dance floor to the talents of DJ James and a host of local Munich drag stars for their fabulous queer party series.
The location is central and cozy, with one of the most colourful dance floors in the city and some fantastic pizza specials. So whether you aim to dance the night away or just come over for a slice and a show, we’d highly encourage you join in on the Wednesday action!
When: Every Wednesday starting at 8 P.M
Where: Senatore

One of Munich’s biggest hidden drag gems would definitely have to be Cafe Regenbogen’s monthly Drag and Mimosas brunch.
Not only is it hosted by three of Munich’s favourite drag queens, but includes a welcome drink, an all you can eat brunch and the most massive mimosas we have come to find in this city…Speaking from experience we can confidently say it’s a enjoy drag or get dragged scenario with that boozy brunch.
If you’re a fan of drag, you won’t want to miss this little event at the cafe. Unfortunately, tickets usually sell out very quickly because the venue is small and the event is so much fun! So if you’re interested, we recommend you grab your tickets sooner rather than later.
