Luckily. our headlining artist agreed to <br />postpone and will come back in 2021 as well, so that was very good news as there <br />was a lot of energy and excitement around his concert appearance. <br />It all came together for 2O21 as planned, even given the short time frame for when <br />we received word we could move forward. Even with an entire new layout and <br />concept, it all flowed together while giving staff even more ideas on how to make it <br />beiter next year. We are so thankful for all the great partners, community members <br />and everrt attendees that supported the eveni and made ?021 a success. lt was a <br />big steppingstone to make it a viable event to hold again in 2022. <br />2500 character lrfiit <br />Additional lnformaiion Tickets are sold at a fair and reasonable price to encourage concert attendance. <br />Having a new website arrd oLrr own ticketirrg platform tntegrated into that assists in <br />increased ticket sales through ease of finding all event info and process of <br />purchasing all in one place- We also provide ticket discounts for our active military <br />and veterans as we salute them for all they do and have done for our country. <br />A small flat fee is charged to the local food vendors we invite to have a space at our <br />event. so it's a great incentive for them to profit off nrost of their concessions. The 4- <br />H food trajler stepped up to the task in 2021 and they sold out of most of theirfood, <br />having tremendous success. This is another great way Patriot Night Under the <br />Lights continues to support our local economy. organizations. and businessesl <br />Rodeo City Rollergirls have continued to put together a bartendtng crew to serue in <br />our beverage gardens ihe last couple events. There has been increased revenue <br />shown in beverage sales, which really helps the bottom line. KVEC pays for their <br />bartending ce(ifications and then their efforts and hard work are awarded with a <br />contracted payment. lt seems to have selved as a great fundraiser for them because <br />they are also allowed to gather tips ioo and it all goes towards covering their ieam s <br />expenses. <br />250C characie{ iinr;i <br />SUppOfting DOCUmentS Yo! ora! up'cad any supperting docufients such as qraphs itrra{.,les. .iiagr0rirs. |ritrkeii/}9 rrateriais etc. <br />PNG101319-1_hr (3).pdf 5.07M8 <br />Event Attendee Map.pdf 647.43K8 <br />HLXAO768.JPG 243.11K8 <br />You are alic\,r'ed'ro su5[]it Lrp to 3 srr{,le paqe qUS l-elterj iocLimenis ln iPG.
