Information

This year, we are revamping our ticket ordering process. On Sunday, the 28th at 8 PM, we will provide a link for purchasing tickets.

As always, we will offer Adult and Child tickets at standard prices. Additionally, Table tickets will be available, but we need to calculate how many can be offered, as we must reserve tables for our invited guests, suppliers, and featured content.

We are currently working on the layout and will determine how to accommodate Bring Your Own tables.

At this time, we will not be providing food beyond the usual biscuits and drinks available in the kitchen. However, a NEW supermarket is just a short walk from the venue, and we hope they will be fully stocked on that day.

We have begun organizing a raffle, and more information on that will be available soon.

Please note that we will not be hosting a Bring and Buy, as there is insufficient space for it.
