Come celebrate community, cocktails, and unapologetic joy at Hotel Covington’s Bourbon & Belonging Drag Brunch—the dazzling finale to Bourbon & Belonging: Kentucky’s Queer Bourbon Week, the nation’s only LGBTQ+ inclusive bourbon week.

Presented by Queer Kentucky—a GLAAD-nominated nonprofit uplifting LGBTQ+ lives through stories, culture, and action—Bourbon & Belonging brings events across Northern Kentucky, Louisville, Lexington, and Paducah (Oct 3–5) with support from local tourism bureaus and media partner Passport Magazine.

What’s Included:

Tickets: $50 per person
• Welcome mimosa (it is brunch, after all)
• Full breakfast buffet to fuel the fun
• 90-minute drag showcase hosted by P.H. Dee with performances from Sasha Grant, Sarah Jessica Darker, and Jessica Marie Jones (JMJ)
• Live beats by DJ Bobby G

Coppin’s bar team will be mixing up espresso martinis, Bloody Marys, and more (available for purchase).

Seating is open—so come ready to mingle, make friends, and cheer on the Queens. Guests under 21 are welcome (minus the mimosa), but please note: there will be adult language and plenty of sass.

Meet the Queens:

P.H. Dee – Emcee extraordinaire, former Miss Red & White and Miss Queen City, with credits spanning Cabaret residencies, Hard Candy tours, and brunches at venues from MadTree Alcove to LeMoo and now Hotel Covington! The “D” may not stand for PhD, but she’ll still school you.

Sasha Grant – Lexington’s “Large & In Charge” legend with over 21 years of captivating stage presence. Crowned Miss Lexington, Miss Bar Complex, Miss Midwest All American Goddess at Large, and more, Sasha is a powerhouse of illusion and charisma.

Sarah Jessica Darker – Cincinnati’s own shining star, best known for hosting NKY Pride and once opening for Lizzo. Fierce, witty, and glamorous, she’s a Queen City staple with national flair.

Jessica Marie Jones (JMJ) – The chameleon of the Cincinnati drag scene and mother of the Jones dynasty. From high-energy bucking to powerhouse ballads, JMJ does it all—and leaves her mark (literally) with a face print on makeup wipes after every show.

Join us at Coppin’s, in the lobby at Hotel Covington, for a brunch experience that’s bold, fabulous, and filled with belonging.
