Part two of the drag queen competition. The contestants that got through the first round battle it out on the biggest night of the carnival for the main prize.

The idea is for each competitor to come out in an elaborate Carnival Queen costume, the more extravagant, the bigger the better. They usually have dancers with them. After the first minute or so pretty much all of that costume comes off and generally very little is left ofr part two where contestants dance in platform shoes 20 inches or so high.

After this event there's all night street parties, dancing and music until the early hours of the morning. Head for the "chringitos".
