About

Australia’s Live-Singing Drag Queen Phenomenon as seen on Australia's Got Talent and heard on C91.3FM and ABC Radio

Step into the world of KARA ZMATIQ Australia’s premier live-singing drag queen, executive producer, and a true icon for the LGBTQIA+ community.

Famed for powerhouse counter-tenor vocals, jaw-dropping costumes, and electric stage presence, Kara Zmatiq leaves audiences utterly spellbound. From a show-stopping standing ovation on Australia’s Got Talent to dazzling performances for global brands, Kara isn’t just a drag artist, they’re a trailblazer, entertainer, and visionary.

Kara’s extraordinary journey began on the legendary dance floors of Sydney’s Stonewall Hotel, where a spontaneous night out transformed Braeden’s life forever and gave birth to the bold, unapologetic alter-ego, Kara Zmatiq. What started as playful lip-syncing in smoky nightclubs quickly blossomed into unforgettable live singing performances, catapulting Kara from the heart of Sydney to international stages, luxury cruise ships, glamorous weddings, and VIP events Australia-wide.

Kara has been the star attraction for events with Netflix, UBER, Tourism Australia, ANZ Bank, Boost Juice, ACCOR Hotels and Resorts, STAN Original Series, One&Only Resorts (Emirates) and more earning standing ovations and five-star reviews everywhere they perform.

Beyond the spotlight, Kara Zmatiq is the founder and executive producer of Soiree Cabaret Productions, Australia’s leading boutique entertainment and event production agency. With over 150+ elite drag queens, drag kings, circus, and variety performers Australia-wide, Kara delivers unforgettable experiences for diverse venues, businesses, and events from grand corporate galas to intimate private parties. If you’ve attended a headline event in Sydney, Bowral, Wollongong, Canberra, or beyond, chances are you’ve witnessed the Soiree Cabaret magic!

Whether belting out Cher’s Welcome to Burlesque, delivering goosebumps with Nina Simone’s Feeling Good, or bringing camp comedy to drag bingo, trivia, and karaoke nights, Kara’s artistry knows no bounds. Each show is a masterclass in entertainment, blending live vocals, cabaret, burlesque, circus acts, and more, all wrapped in sequins and heart. Kara connects with every audience, making weddings, fundraisers, product launches, and private celebrations utterly unforgettable.

Known as the Queen of the Southern Highlands, Kara Zmatiq brings sparkle, inclusivity, and fierce authenticity to every performance. From headline shows to walk-down-the-aisle serenades, Kara’s energy transforms every occasion into a celebration of pride, glamour, and sheer joy. Available Australia-wide (and internationally!), Kara is ready to turn your next event into a legendary spectacle.
