OVERVIEW

Some Canadians claim they launched the ugly Christmas sweater fad in 2002. However, the tradition was forged in 2000 over White Russians, vinyl classics, lots of mustaches, and beautiful festive shenanigans. Don’t believe us? We’ve got the receipts!Michigan didn’t just join a trend, we ignited an international obsession with thousands of similarly themed parties popping up every year since.

Featuring Douglas Fir & The Tinsel Toes and Fraser Fir & The Mistle Toes

FAQ

Is there a dress code?

Raid your grandmother's closet and steal he tackiest Christmas sweater. Mustaches are highley recommended as well. There will be an award for the best mustache.

We want everyone to feel comfortable and ready to party, but the venue does have some standards. Just think clean, snappy casual, and festive, and you should be good. Please refrain from wearing sweatpants, basketball shorts, or other gym-type clothing.

Where am I going?

You will be going to Fifth Avenue in downtown Royal Oak located at 215 W Fifth, Royal Oak, MI 48067

Where do I park?

There are flat surface parking lots just east of our venue between 6th and 7th street in downtown Royal Oak. We like to encourage guests to park in the parking structure at 290 S. Lafayette Ave, on 6th and Lafayette, or in the garage at 300 S. Center Street. Both are only a few minutes' walk from Fifth Avenue.

Is there elevator access to the second-floor event space at Fifth Avenue?

Yes. Most guests will enter via the stairwell. However, we are happy to provide special accommodations for anyone who needs it. Just ask any of our friendly staff members about the elevator, and we will be happy to assist you.

Can we stay later than 10pm?

Yes, absolutely! The private event ends at 10pm but the fun doesn't stop there! Guests can keep the party going at Fifth Avenue until 2am with our DJ and dance floor on the upper level or hang out on our main floor! However, if you leave the reunion, there will be no complimentary re-entry to the venue if you return after 10pm.

Do I need to print out anything?

Nope, show us your email with the QR code for your order, or tell us your name, and we will be able to scan the email. We also have your name on our Eventbrite paid guest list!
