The doors to the Saturday night concert closes at 8:00pm – after that there will no admission or refunds, so that our staff may enjoy the concert as well.
An individual Concert Ticket for the Saturday concert and specific Friday events are required.
You may purchase a Concert Ticket without a convention pass (the ticket will get you access to the event only, with event gate opening at 6:30 pm).
Guests line up in front of the Grand Palace Saloon.
As an Aristocrat ticket includes all-access entry pass to the park and concerts, the Aristocrats will meet in the Aristocrat Lounge before the concert. Aristocrats are granted First Entry to the Grand Palace Saloon before the “general” line.
Seating is limited and not guaranteed. Sitting on the floor, standing, and dancing is also permitted – and encouraged!
We do not have a reduced ticket price for children for the night events due to Fire Marshall capacity restrictions.

No! While you’re absolutely allowed to wear costumes, there is no requirement to do so.

Steampunk on a Thrift-Store Budget: A Guide to Successful Thrifting is an article we recommend for those just getting started.

We will have classes and Make & Take workshops to help you on your way!
