Do I need to bring/wear my SYTA badge?
You do not have to wear your SYTA badge to the Soiree; however, if you plan to attend the Afterglow at SUMMIT One Vanderbilt, you will need it to enter the Afterglow.
What should I wear?
No need to pack a ballgown or tuxedo. The dress code is “Summer Cocktail Attire” and here is a pinterest.com board with suggested attire. The event space is partially outside, so plan to be comfortable if it is a warm summer evening. There are grassy areas, so we recommend avoiding stiletto heels.
Will the event still take place if it rains?
Yes, Radio Park offers a combination of indoor and outdoor space. If the weather does not cooperate, there is a plan to fully utilize the indoor space.
Does the Soiree offer open seating for single ticket holders?
There will be plenty of open seating throughout the venue (both inside and outside!) to enjoy. Reserved tables will be identified with the table sponsor logo.
Will there be food and beverages served?
Yes, there will be a variety of heavy hors d’oeuvres, desserts, and a full open bar. Mocktails will be provided by ARTEC House. The menu has been selected with multiple allergies considered and will be available on-site.
Will there be a Live Auction?
There will not be a Live Auction at the event; however, there are opportunities to further support the SYTA Youth Foundation through the Silent Auction and Chance Drawing during Conference. Be sure to create your silent auction account early to check out the amazing items and packages available.
