The Get Rescued Celebration is the popular evening component of a full day of festivities that begin with Gulfport’s Get Rescued, the beloved annual street festival and fundraiser held on Beach Blvd. on the same day.
Later in the evening, all are invited to a lively evening of fun for humans that will also donate to the important cause of animal rescues. The evening will include dancing and music.
Free catered hors d’oeuvre, a cash bar, fresh flowers and festive décor will add to the party atmosphere.
Opportunity drawings will take place during the evening. Proceeds from ticket sales, after expenses, will be donated to rescue groups participating in the evening event.
Live and silent auctions will offer a chance to support up to ten non-profit rescue groups with a variety of auction items up for bids including travel, hotel stays, art, wine and food, pet accessories, restaurant gift certificates and much more.
Rescue groups solicit their own items and will receive 100% of proceeds from their auctions.
Tickets for the Get Rescued Celebration are $20 each. Advance tickets may be purchased by calling 727-323-3892 or by ordering online (see PayPal button on right of this page). A limited number of tickets will also be available at the door on Saturday, February 25 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the Gulfport Casino Ballroom, 5500 Shore Blvd. South.
