Yes! If you previously purchased tickets to the cancelled 2025 show OR the previous 2026 dates, they will still be honored for the new dates which are May 2nd-3rd, 2026.
The previously scheduled dates fell on Easter weekend. We realize that many people (including our team) may have family plans. We hope that moving the dates will allow more people to be able to attend. It also gives our team a few extra weeks to make the show the best we can!
