An Evening Under the Big Top presented by Generation Tux!

The evening begins with cocktail hours and an open bar, inviting you to sip, savor, and mingle beneath a canopy of twinkling lights. As you wander through the venue, marvel at the daring feats of aerial artists, uncover your destiny with tarot readers, and be amazed by the sleight of hand of world-class magicians.
