Miss Legends 2026 Pageant 

Mark your calendars for Sunday, December 7th, 2025 as Legends Nightclub Complex proudly presents the Miss Legends 2026 Pageant. One of Raleigh’s most iconic drag traditions, this evening crowns the next queen to join the legendary lineage of performers who have defined our stage.
Our reigning Miss Legends 2025, Malaysia Kenyatta-Black, will return to pass on the crown in a night filled with glamour, talent, and fierce competition. Contestants will showcase their artistry across categories, including Presentation, Interview, Talent, Evening Gown, and On-Stage Q&A, all in pursuit of the crown and title.
The Miss Legends legacy began in 1995, when the incomparable Showgirl of the South and drag staple Dana St. James was crowned the very first Miss Legends. Since then, the pageant has grown into a beloved tradition, honoring the artistry and excellence of drag entertainers across the region.
The winner of Miss Legends 2026 will receive a stunning crown and sash, a professional photo shoot, guaranteed bookings throughout the year, and a cash prize package, along with the honor of representing Legends as an ambassador in our community and beyond.
With unforgettable performances, appearances by former titleholders, and dazzling production, Miss Legends is more than just a pageant—it’s a celebration of drag excellence, community, and history.
