General admission tickets cost $35 per person and sponsorships start at $250; both can be purchased online at asapservices.com/redribbon and general admission tickets can be purchased at the door. Included in the cost of admission is an open bar (beer, wine and well drinks) from 4 to 6 p.m., as well as an assortment of tapas. Also featured is a live band for your dancing enjoyment. A silent auction will occur throughout the dance as well, with proceeds going to ASAP so the organization can continue to provide services to the thousands who rely on them.
