Pricing

You may have noticed that we have an unbelievably economic "General Admission" ticket option this year. We want you to meet your neighbors more than anything else.  While additional contributions are always welcome, we wanted to make sure as many of us as possible can attend.  Bring your family.  Designate a driver. Whatever, the reason. Please help us make this event a roaring success and "vote with your feet" by purchasing tickets if you want us to have this option for future events.

Support YOUR OWN Senate District through THIS Event

If you don't live in Minnesota's Senate District 45, that's OK. We still like you and you're still welcome to attend.

Spoiler alert - we're NOT Democrats.  We know you want YOUR MONEY to benefit YOUR OWN basic political operating unit (aka, your Senate District). We intend for your contact information and the balance of each ticket in excess of event expenses to go to your Senate District committee, even if it's not us.  Feel free to contact your BPOU leadership to confirm appropriate arrangements are in place.  If they don't know about this arrangement, then tell them to reach out to us asap so we can get them set up.

Other Questions?

Please Contact Us with any questions you might have about the event.  If it's a common enough question, we'll try to post the answers here asap.

Help Us Out

Please purchase your tickets as soon as possible on or before September 22, 2023 to allow time to manage catering and beverage planning so everyone can have a great time.  We will aim to accommodate all who are interested in attending but space may be limited.
