editThe reality competition show is set as to have weekly challenges to eliminate the participants and thus find the best one. Each week the contestants face a series of challenges, guided and advised by Juan Carmona and guests. Each episode there is a mini-challenge and a runway walk according to a theme of Mexican culture where each participant demonstrates their versatility. The judges evaluate them in a gala where the two participants with the lowest score will go straight to lipsync, where only one participant will be saved. The eliminated one goes to the "drag-altar" where she will be the most dreamed of and forever remembered. La Más Draga of all Mexico is chosen from among the last three finalists.
