The second season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars premiered on the Logo network on a new night; Thursday, August 25, 2016. Returning judges included RuPaul, Michelle Visage, and Carson Kressley, while the space previously occupied by Ross Matthews was filled by Todrick Hall. Cast members were announced on June 17, 2016. This season featured ten All-Star contestants, selected from the show's second season through to its seventh season, who competed to be inducted into the "Drag Race Hall of Fame".
A new twist was revealed for this season, changing the format of the show. In previous seasons, the bottom two queens had to "Lip-sync for their Life" to avoid elimination. This season had the top two performing queens of the challenge "Lip-sync for their Legacy", with the winner of the lip-sync earning $10,000 and choosing which one of the bottom queens gets eliminated. The prizes for the winner were a one-year supply of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics and a cash prize of $100,000.

Each of the contestants made their entrance and got acquainted with one another. RuPaul then congratulated the contestants on being invited back for the All Stars season, and then introduced a twist to the competition that shocked the contestants; Instead of the traditional format where she would eliminate one of the bottom contestants, she would not eliminate anyone this season.
After all of the girls had said their peace, RuPaul announced Alaska as the winner.
In the main challenge, Adore, Alaska, and Detox chose to sing as their talents, while Phi Phi O'Hara chose to sing in a-cappella. Alyssa Edwards' talent was a variety act, Coco Montrese's talent was an interpretive dance, Katya's talent was a gymnastics routine, Roxxxy Andrews' talent was a burlesque routine, and Tatianna's talent was a spoken word rendition. Adore, Phi Phi, and Coco Montrese were declared the bottom three and Roxxxy Andrews and Tatianna were declared the two winners.
