One of the things I love about the classic is that prior to the event, the food and beverage menus are all online so you can see what will be served!
The live entertainment is awesome! After a few hours of noshing and drinking you can walk where the music is and enjoy up close and personal, even dance if you are so inclined.
It is a fun party atmosphere and hope to see you there in October!!!

DISCLAIMER: AllEars has been invited the last 2 years to attend a media preview of the Classic. I have paid every year out of my own pocket to attend this event, it is that good. Sometimes AllEars receives a pair of comp ticket as local media, I pass them along to a member of AllEars for reporting. Those perks do not affect my review, and my opinions are my own.
