I would like to do this event. It's in the evening so it won't be scorching hot, and it will still leave the day to do stuff and get things done.

If I can't do SW, I may ask if he needs any HP characters. Bellatrix is always down for a photo or two! Wink

Those trooping can stay for the concert for free, handlers will receive a discounted ticket that will be $20. Parking passes will be provided as well.
We will be trooping the plaza and can have helmets, blasters & sabers in that area only.
They need a final count with names by Monday, be sure to post if you plan to troop.

Joe and I are in as Hera and Kanan (Anakin?)

There are a TON of people I know going to this event so I'm super excited! I'm always talking about my costumes, but most have never seen it in person.

Everyones name has been turned in. If anyone plans to stay for the concert be sure to bring a blanket or beach type chair. (their rules are no chairs higher than 9" off the ground)

Parking will be at the corner of 4th and Korean Veterans Blvd. It's 3.5 blocks from the entrance. If needed we can drop bins off at the amphitheater and then park.

Parking info:
It will be at the Pinnacle Building garage. I have parking vouchers for your folks. I'm thinking it'll probably be easiest if they drive up to the amphitheater, drop off their trunks with me at the corner of Demonbruen & 1st Ave S and other stuff to watch, give them the parking voucher and then walk to Ascend. That would help in them not having to roll their cases 2.5 blocks.
