As a data analyst by trade, I know how to build a mean Excel sheet, but I don't know how to code a website. So, to get the site up and running, I used Claude Code. Now my focus is maintaining the events on the site. To do that, I update an Excel spreadsheet several times a week by reviewing the Instagram and websites of Chicago drag artists and venues.
Event details provided in the list and map views on the site do not contain affiliate links. However, there may be sponsored advertisements between official events and advertisements on the side of the pages. These sponsored advertisements will be visually distinct from the default event details to provide an easy method to distinguish between a sponsored ad and an event that is normally on the site.
If you are the owner of an intellectual property displayed on this website (event poster or authored event description) and would like to have an event poster or description taken down, please send an email with the event details at:
