About Mari Con Carne

Back to Washington, DC Drag Performers

Meet Mari Con Carne, DC's Mexican sensation in a wig! Known for their vibrant performances, Mari graces the stages of Noche de Lotería every last Wednesday of the month and Tóxica every first Thursday. With a schedule that spans DC, MD, NJ, and NY, Mari brings a unique flair to each show.

From sassy posts about upcoming gigs to heartfelt gratitude for the drag community, Mari's social media is a blend of sass and sincerity. Whether rocking a stunning Nicola Mendoza NYC creation or sharing their DIY outfit creations, Mari's style is always on point.

Aside from their fierce performances, Mari champions important causes, like organizing a free community event with Red Bear Brewing to educate on the opioid epidemic. It's not just about the glitz and glam for Mari; they use their platform to uplift and educate.

So, whether you catch Mari serving looks at Trade Bar DC or lighting up the stage at an event, expect a night filled with energy, talent, and a touch of Mexican magic. 🌈✨ #DragQueen #DCDrag #LGBTQ+ 🌟
