Event Information:
Tickets include admission to the Joy District (we’ve got a full venue buyout!), open bar access (wine, beer, and soft drinks), and gourmet catering. The event will also feature a DJ and professional photographer*.
As this is a full venue buyout, Joy District will be closed to the public for the duration of our event. If you'd like to celebrate with us, make sure you snag a ticket!
Joy District is easily accessible by public transportation, but if you choose to drive, valet is offered for $25.
Coat check will be available at a charge of $5 per item.

Dress Code:
When we say masquerade, we mean it! Hopefully you’ll have attended one of our mask making workshops earlier this quarter, or you’ve got your own in storage. If not, we’ll have masks available at the venue for you to pick from for a small fee - not mandatory, just encouraged.
As for your outfit, we’ll use a formal dress code - dress to the nines, we will too!
