Drag Race Italia is the Italian version of RuPaul's Drag Race. The show was first "confirmed" by an Italian website called davidemaggio.it.[3] The same news were then re-published by numerous other Italian news websites and spread all over social media, especially among Italian users and pages.
On July 1, 2021, Drag Race Italia was officially confirmed by World of Wonder through its Instagram accounts. In this occasion it was also announced that the show will soon be available on the company's online streaming service, WOW Presents Plus, to all countries excluding Italy, where it will be distributed by Discovery+.[4]
Season 1 and its cast was announced on 29 October, 2021 and the series aired on November 18, 2021. Eight contestants competed for the chance to win €30,000, a one-year supply of cosmetics, a crown and scepter from Fierce! Drag Jewels, the ability to be the ambassador for MAC Cosmetics for a year and the ability to produce a limited edition line of products with their name.
