With the “Drag Race México” Season 2 finale upon us, the show has already been greenlit for a third installment.

World of Wonder, the multi-platform media company behind the global “Drag Race” franchise, re-upped the show following the success of its second season, which garnered a 40% increase in viewership over its first season.

“The dream of ‘Drag Race México’ has been a long time coming. Fans lobbied hard for years, and when the show launched, their support and engagement was total euphoria. The artists in the show and the audience’s love for them embody everything ‘Drag Race’ should be,” said World of Wonder co-founders Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato. “After the runaway success of Seasons 1 and 2, we are thrilled to announce Season 3. Through their bedazzling creativity and diverse talents, the queens of Mexico serve a feast of pure joy.”

“Drag Race México’s” Season 2 finale will see the top four queens Eva Blunt, Horacio Potasio, Leexa Fox and Jenary Bloom compete to take home the crown and scepter, along with a cash prize.

The announcement marks World of Wonder’s continued global expansion of WOW Presents Plus, which is home to all international versions of the franchise as well as other WOW Original series and films.

The project has received approval to obtain the CINA incentive (Audiovisual Investment Certificate), granted by the Colombian government and administered by Proimágenes Colombia: a tax discount of the expenditure on audiovisual services in the country.

Elsewhere, “Drag Race Brasil” is looking for the country’s next drag superstar. Submissions are open to all residents of Brasil at worldofwonder.com/casting.

“RuPaul’s Drag Race UK” will return later this month on Sept. 26 with all episodes airing on WOW Presents Plus.
