The Miss Gay Indiana University pageant has been a tradition in Bloomington for nearly 18 years.  Miss Gay IU is one of the nation’s largest and most attended drag pageants for female impersonators.  Held in the Indiana University Auditorium, Miss Gay IU has around 1000 attendees annually from Bloomington and the surrounding area.  Contestants from around the state of Indiana compete for the title by presenting themselves in personal interview, evening gown, talent production, and onstage question and answer.  Miss Gay IU is a night of entertainment for students, additionally Miss Gay IU has been an opportunity for returning alumni to have something to look forward to gathering together for every year.  Showing support for the Miss Gay IU pageant and OUT GLBT Student Union reflects on our community, one of acceptance, tolerance and understanding.  Our goal is to promote diversity and celebrate our uniqueness.   Miss Gay IU can be seen throughout the year speaking on panels and performing across the state of Indiana.
