BEACH BALL | Fri., Oct. 17, 2025 | 6:30-10 p.m. | 21+ event | ~Costumes strongly encouraged~

Click here to purchase tickets now!


The Beach Ball is back—and more unhinged than ever. A surreal celebration of art, imagination, and whimsy. A tad taboo, delightfully off-kilter, and rather eccentric… darling, it’s the Beach Ball. The red carpet awaits your grand entrance—however dramatic, mysterious, or absurd you wish.

Sip signature drinks from MHK Caravan Co., savor decadent bites from Nico’s Little Italy, and dance deep into the night with DJ N.A. BeerWolf. A silent auction will tempt. A costume contest will crown.

Interpret the dress code however your imagination dares. If it bends reality, suggests a metaphor, or wandered in from a dream—you’re doing it right.

It’s not a gala. It’s a happening. Wear something inspired. Bring someone delightful and leave logic at the door.
