Lip Sync for Life 2026 was an energy-filled and extraordinary evening designed to raise funds for DIFFA’s Excellence in Care grants program. The attendees enjoyed jaw-dropping homemade music videos, dynamic performances from Chicago’s top drag queens, and gourmet food and drinks at nearly sold-out Lincoln Hall.
With a spectacular lineup of talent, the competition was intense, as all teams brought their best selves to raise the most funds for the Excellence in Care grants program. In the end, You’re Welcome took away with the LSFL 2025 Crown by raising $16,438. Coming in a close second and third were Miss Ali B with $12,394 and Living the Fantasy with $8,157.
Thanks to the attendees and sponsors, this year’s LSFL raised nearly $108,000 to support agencies dedicated to the fight against HIV/AIDS throughout the Chicagoland area.
