High Heel Race turns 25

On the Tuesday before Halloween, Dupont Circle is overrun with drag queens and Oct. 25 will be no different as the 25th annual Drag Queen High Heel Race takes place.

The first race happened in 1986.

"The first race was guys running from JR.'s to Annie's, doing a shot, and running back to JR.'s," says Paul Williams, executive director of Historic Dupont Circle Main Street. "It's grown from a few dozen watchers to an expected 100,000 people this year."
