Ticket Link – http://fantastic.cbo.io
General admission tickets are $75, VIP tickets (with a guaranteed seat!) are $125, and children 12 and under are $40.
And we have a very limited number of VIP tables available. The tables seat four, include food and bubbly, and are directly in front of the stage. These won’t last long!
As with all of our events, all of the funds raised directly support Blue Bear’s outreach programming, and bring free music education to San Francisco kids. So you’ll be doing a good deed while you’re enjoying fine food, music and views!
