Appeals Court Upholds Florida Ban on Children at Drag Shows The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled in favor of a Florida law prohibiting minors from attending drag shows, sparking both praise and outrage among advocates for LGBTQ+ rights.
The ban, signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis last year, prohibits children under 18 from being present at events where a performer's gender is masked or concealed.
The Florida ban on children at drag shows is part of a broader trend of anti drag legislation sweeping across the United States.
