Celebrating the Innis student community in style

On the evening of Saturday February 28^th, students dressed in their finest attire and took to Palais Royale to celebrate the largest Innis event of the year. As one of the most popular formals around campus, tickets sold out for the first time and over 50 coveting students were placed on a waitlist. An unbeatable price of $35 per Innis student drew huge crowds who experienced a delicious dinner and premium open-bar. Apparently, the talented bar tenders came at no extra cost. There really is no other occasion in life where the price for open bar will be maxed out at $40 per person- subsidized by the ICSS for about a third of the original price.

The Palais Royale was a beautiful and intimate venue for a smaller community like Innis, decorated to the theme of a Midsummer’s Night Dream. Although the lead-up to the event was stressful according to ICSS Socials Brianne Katz-Griffin and Adam Tward, the night was executed almost flawlessly with no formidable complaints. The only flaw lightly reported was that the dancing portion did not feel long enough.

Because of the extremely high demand for tickets this year, there are serious conversations in place to create a priority period for Innis students to purchase formal tickets in the future.
