Ariel Rec is known for 'introducing' Spain to the Drag Race franchise, through reviews and recaps on her YouTube channel. This led to her becoming the host for Drag Race US winner Aquaria on her tour of Spain, so we know she's had the inside knowledge of how to compete! Unafraid to speak up for what she believes in, she's a versatile and creative perfectionist and, as one of Spain's best-known drag queens, there are high expectations for her going into the season.

Known for delivering social justice through her LGBTQIA+ activism, as well as serving some stunning killer lipsyncs, Diamante is a social butterfly who has lived in the Dominican Republic, Germany, France, Australia AND Spain. She says she has the "flavour of the Dominicans, the strength of the maños, the discipline of the Germans, the class of the French and the eccentricity of the Australians."

Drag Sethlas

As the only drag queen of the Drag Gala of the Carnival of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria who has won the throne twice, Sethlas is one to watch. This conceptual queen takes inspiration from religion, adding a modern and sexy twist and serving it all up with a charming personality.

"No one is more diverse than me", says Jota, who describes themselves as "a gypsy, bisexual, trans-non-binary, Martian drag queen and folkloric person". Unafraid to unapologetically be themselves, Jota is sure to be captivating on the screen, with a unique and personal style unlike any we've seen come before.

You've heard of a triple threat, how about a quintuple threat? Juriji has been selected for both the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, as well as being asked to perform at Madame Arthur in Paris, France. With a style that goes beyond the norm, she's certainly not one to sleep on; and keep those eyes peeled for her great sense of humour!
