Local Resident Concert Tickets Sold Out; Regular GA and VIP Tickets Still Available
(Sag Harbor, N.Y.) Today, AFTEE (ALL FOR THE EAST END) has announced that plans for the inaugural fundraising concert, BNB Presents AFTEE Nile Rodgers Dance Party, at Martha Clara Vineyards, on Monday August 19, 2013, continue to move forward with increasing levels of support from local businesses and media. AFTEE has received both financial and in-kind contributions that will help achieve its goal of establishing a significant fund to support the East End not-for-profit community.
In addition, ticket sales for the concert have exceeded expectations. The 1,000 East End resident-only tickets have already sold out while regularly priced general admission and VIP tickets are still available at AFTEE.org. General admission ticketholders will have access to a parade of specialty food trucks. Plus, the historic Suffolk Theater in Riverhead will host an After Party Dance Party to keep party going after the benefit concert ends.
“We are so excited that the local community has embraced AFTEE’s first concert,” says Jim Durning, the AFTEE Executive Committee Member overseeing ticket sales. “This is all about supporting the East End nonprofits, and with Nile Rodgers and Chic behind this effort, we fully expect a sold-out event.”
New sponsors continue to join the AFTEE effort. Sponsors receive major visibility at the concert and the opportunity to entertain customers and friends in VIP and BNB Lounge environments, complete with extensive food and beverage coordinated by Hampton Event Management – the same organization responsible for All For The Sea and Ladles of Love. Sponsorship information is available at AFTEE.org or by contacting Mary Morgan, Executive Director, at mary@aftee.org or 631-599-9297.
