Get ready to crank up the volume and turn back the clock - it's time to rock for a reason! Join us for a show-stopping evening of 80s rock glamour at our exclusive gala, headlined by none other than American Idol finalist and Broadway sensation Constantine Maroulis, Tony-nominated star of Rock of Ages.
Step into a world of big hair, leather jackets, neon lights, and power ballads as Constantine lights up the stage with iconic hits from Journey, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, and more. This isn't just a performance - it's a full-throttle rock experience that will have you dancing, singing, and partying the night away.
Indulge in decadent food and cocktails with a rock-inspired twist
Sing along to your favorite 80s anthems
