THE ULTRA-VIP TIER
The Ultra-VIP donation is your key to two nights in heaven. This year fifty lucky individuals will be able to be Ultra VIP donors and as thanks be treated like the name suggests. This includes invitations to our opening Ultra-event Wednesday May 17, where the invited ambassadors will visit with you for 10 minutes at a time discussing drams worthy of the Ultra-VIP moniker, several being poured for their first time, or even exclusively, at our event. When this event is over, you will also have Ultra VIP access to our opening night kickoff cigars and cocktails party at Carnegie Club as well. You will also get early access to the IAC Lobby on Thursday May 18, with invitations to our opening master classes, and throughout the evening you will be a VIP at the tables of your choosing (selected in advance). There may even be some surprise tables exclusive to our Ultra VIP. And of course you are welcome to spend time outside enjoying cigars and pairings while listening to the Blueswater. Not only will you receive the standard glass and the exclusive cut crystal VIP Glencairn, but there will be additional hand blown Ultra-VIP items made just for you. A memorable two nights indeed.
