Welcome to Reina – Ready to Rule 

Founded in the heart of Hell’s Kitchen in New York City by Sean Champagne in March 2025, Reina was born out of a desire to give the LGBTQ+ community a platform that celebrates its vibrant nightlife and the artistry of drag. We’re not just another directory — Reina is a one-stop destination where you can explore, review, and connect with gay bars across the country, discover local drag artists, and even post gigs that Queens and Kings can claim.

Our Mission 

At Reina, we aim to spotlight the best of LGBTQ+ nightlife and performance culture. Whether you’re looking for a lively bar with a drag brunch, searching for the next drag superstar to host your event, or browsing upcoming gigs, Reina is here to make those connections seamless and empowering for the community.

How It Works: 

– Search for gay bars in any city, explore tags like “Brunch,” “Outdoor Seating,” or “Women Owned.”

– Discover and rate Drag Queens and Kings , filtering by style — whether they slay with stunts, comedy, or hosting.

– Post or browse  gigs that Queens can apply for, creating opportunities for artists to thrive.

– Queens can list their services and prices, making them  “Bookable”  for private and public events.

– Explore upcoming  events at your favorite bars.

Our Vision: 

Reina is more than a directory — it’s a movement. We believe in uplifting LGBTQ+ spaces and artists, ensuring that every Queen and King has a throne to claim and every bar has a packed dance floor. So whether you’re looking to sip, serve, or slay — Reina has your back.

Thank you,

Sean Champagne
