Listen up ho ho hoes, because your first look at the RuPaul’s Drag Race Christmas special is here.

Ahead of the premiere of All Stars 4 next month, Mama Ru has lined up a one-off festive offering of fabulousness in the form of RuPaul’s Drag Race Holi-Slay Spectacular, which sees eight legendary queens return to the workroom for a shot at the Christmas crown.

Set to air on 7 December on VH1 in the US, the one-off, hour-long episode will see fan favorites including Eureka O’Hara, Jasmine Masters, Kim Chi, Latrice Royale, Mayhem Miller, Shangela, Sonique, and Trixie Mattel compete for the title of America’s first ‘Drag Race Xmas Queen’.

With heaps of glitter, gag-worthy lewks and voguing shirtless reindeer (troublingly hot), it looks like there’s plenty for give thanks for this holiday season – and the episode will also give fans an exclusive peek at All Stars 4, which will begin airing a week later, on 14 December.

Looks like Christmas really has come early this year…

RuPaul’s Drag Race Holi-slay Spectacular airs 7 December at 8/7c on VH1 in the US.
