Private vs. Public Drag Queen Bar Crawl – What’s Right for Your Group?
Planning a night out with Drag Me To Drink, but not sure whether to go private or join one of our public crawls?
You're not alone. Both options are unforgettable—featuring fierce drag queen hosts, exclusive drink specials, and VIP nightlife access. But depending on your group, your vibe, and your budget, one may suit your needs better than the other.
Here’s a breakdown of private vs. public drag queen bar crawls, so you can book the right experience and slay your night your way.
What Is a Public Drag Me To Drink Crawl?
Our public crawls are scheduled events where multiple groups come together to party as one big, fabulous crawl crew. A professional drag queen host leads the way, keeping everyone engaged with games, music, performances, and more.
You’ll join other bachelorette parties, girls’ trips, tourists, and locals as you hit 3 to 5 bars in 2 hours with drink specials and skip-the-line perks.
Perfect for:
- Smaller groups (2–10 people)
- Meeting new people
- Fun, budget-friendly weekends
- Spontaneous celebrations
- Out-of-towners who want a turn-key night out
Ticket Cost: $12 for a one-day pass or $24 for a 4-day wristband
What Is a Private Drag Me To Drink Crawl?
Booking a private crawl gives your group a personalized nightlife experience hosted by your own dedicated drag queen. You choose the date, the vibe, the timing, and we take care of the route, the reservations, and the details.
Your queen is there for you and only you, bringing extra energy, customized games, and the chance to control how wild—or classy—the night gets.
Perfect for:
- Bachelorette parties
- Birthday groups
- Corporate teams or client entertainment
- LGBTQ+ celebrations
- Groups of 8+ who want more control or privacy
Starting price: $395 per group (varies by size and add-ons)

What’s the Right Call for You?
If you love the energy of meeting new people, sharing laughs with other bachelorette groups, and joining a buzzing event—go public.
If you want more attention, more flexibility, and a host who’s focused solely on your bride squad or birthday crew—go private.
Both options bring the same quality of service, fun-loving drag queen hosts, and access to Scottsdale’s best bars. It really comes down to how custom you want your night to feel.
Bonus Option: Do Both
Some groups start with a public crawl to mix it up, then book a private crawl for the big night or Sunday brunch recovery edition. There are no rules—just glitter and options.
