FAQs
Are tickets available at the Door?
Yes. Buying your tickets online in advance allows you to go directly to the redemption area and skip the sales line.

When will the celebrities be there?
Most guests will be at the event Saturday and Sunday. If there is a guest that will only be at the event for one day, it will be noted on their bio page.
How do I redeem my online ticket?

All guests that we announce have committed to attending the show.
