Liverpool is preparing to honor The Vivienne with a life-sized statue in the city’s Pride Quarter. The memorial will celebrate the late drag performer, who became widely known after winning RuPaul’s Drag Race UK.
According to the announcement, the statue will be placed at the junction of Victoria Street and Stanley Street. That location is significant because it marks the entrance to Liverpool’s Pride Quarter, giving the tribute a prominent public setting.
The plan highlights The Vivienne’s connection to both British drag culture and Liverpool’s LGBTQ+ community. Placing the statue in one of the city’s best-known nightlife and community areas underlines the importance of their legacy to local and national audiences.
The tribute is set to create a lasting landmark in Liverpool, recognizing The Vivienne’s impact on entertainment and queer visibility. For fans and visitors, the statue is expected to become a focal point in the Pride Quarter and a public remembrance of a major drag star.
