Southern Decadence Weekend in 2019? |

are Thursday, August 29 through Monday, September 2.
And if you like to really plan ahead, the dates for 2020 are
September 3 through
September 7. And here's a little Decadence trivia: the
Southern Decadence dates for 2020 are the latest that they
can ever be. |

Why should I purchase a Weekend Pass
online in advance instead of waiting
until later? |
| |
There are good reasons to
purchase a Weekend Pass
online. Only a limited number of Weekend Passes are sold, and
VIP Weekend Passes always sell out before the weekend even
starts. If you purchase in
advance, you will save a few bucks compared to the cost of
nightly admissions. And credit cards may be used for
online purchases ... On-premises purchases are cash-only.
Weekend Passes for 2019 will be available for purchase online
very soon. And please consider joining our email list
and following us on Facebook, and be among the first to receive
updates about Southern
Decadence 2019. |
