“We have more than 40 special guests, speakers and dignitaries coming to the dinner, all of them successful and influential people. There’s only a handful of VIP passes available and we’re already down to the last few. However we still have some of our regular tickets left and they’re currently available at an early bird rate, so now’s the best time to buy one!”
