THE REUNIONS GALA
Grand Festival Tent, West Campus
THE REUNIONS GALA is an event you'll remember for years to come. The venue: the Grand Festival Tent, a climate-controlled structure the size of a football field complete with flooring and ambient lighting. Add an abundant amount of gourmet food, then mix in first-class musical entertainment. A jazz quartet opens the evening at 7:00 p.m., followed by the Casablanca Orchestra, an 18-piece swing ensemble, at 8:00 p.m. At 10:00 p.m., groove to the dynamic and funkadelic sounds of the band Big Swing and the Ballroom Blasters. Mix, mingle, eat, drink, and dance. What a night of new memories to add to your Duke experience!
