Originating in 1988 as an underground house party for LGBTQ+ Asian & Pacific Islanders, Runway was a chance for our community to gather in safety, solidarity, and celebration to crown new GAPA Royalty as representatives of GAPA and the QTAPI community.
The event has grown to become widely recognized as one of the longest continuously running QTAPI pageants, drawing celebrity judges from all over the world. As generations of contestants have battled it out through rounds of fashion, talent, and Q&As, Runway has always stayed true to its roots.
Encouraged by over three decades of community tradition, we boldly look towards the next chapters of Runway as it continues to celebrate and include all facets of our community, welcoming Mx GAPA, Miss GAPA and Mister GAPA titleholders into new generations of GAPA Royalty.
