The thirteenth season of RuPaul's Drag Race was officially announced on August 20, 2020. Filming began in mid July 2020 with production officially ending on August 31, when the contestants resumed social media activity.

On Tuesday, December 8, 2020, the first promo for Season 13 was accidentally leaked on the official YouTube channel revealing the season would premiere on Friday, January 1, 2021 and revealing several queens.

On December 9, 2020 the cast was officially announced on Twitter and promos were released. The promo theme for the season was Pasteloquence, featuring the queens in a pin-up silhouette modified for their drag style in pastel colors.

About The Show

The 13th season of the global phenomenon “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” will premier Friday, January 1, at 8PM ET/PT. After winning six Emmy® Awards this year and solidifying itself as the most awarded reality competition show in history, the highly anticipated new season is bringing together thirteen fabulous queens as they vie for the title of “America’s Next Drag Superstar” and a cash prize of $100,000. Additionally, the Emmy®-nominated after-show “RuPaul’s Drag Race: Untucked” will premiere immediately following at 9:30PM ET/PT. “Untucked” brings viewers behind the scenes to the backstage drama as the queens anxiously await their fate and see who will need to lip-sync for their life to avoid the week’s elimination.
