UCU 21st Anniversary Winter Show Preview Night 2025

Back by popular demand, our much loved Preview Night will take place the night before our big winter show.

This exclusive event will only be available to the first 1,500 fans who register to attend.

***PLEASE NOTE PREVIEW NIGHT IS A 21+ EVENT -- WE WILL BE CHECKING ID'S AT THE DOOR, AND NO MINORS WILL BE ALLOWED!***

Your Preview Night ticket will entitle you to the following:

• Early access to all your favorite vendors
• A chance to beat the crowds and shop while inventory is fresh
• Discounted parking in the garage across the street
• Sweet and savory food options available from our delicious lineup of food vendors (see info below about our new food truck area at this show!)
• Many opportunities to win some incredible FREE raffle prizes that have been donated by our favorite local businesses.

We are happy to once again offer you DISCOUNTED PARKING for Preview Night! The deadline to reserve your prepaid ticket is Monday, Dcember 1st, at midnight (or until the spots sell out, which often happens early). We're sorry if you missed the window, but we need to ensure that we can get an accurate guest list over to the parking managers in time for the show.

So make it a date night, a girls' night out, get a group of friends together, or just treat yourself!

Please Note:

• Swag bags will NOT be handed out at Preview Night. Swag bags will still only be given to the first 100 fans through the door each day during our regular Saturday/Sunday show days.
• This event is 21+. Sorry, no minors allowed!
• We expect this event to sell out quickly, so register today!

NEW THIS YEAR: FOOD TRUCKS!

We are so excited to announce that we will be having even MORE food options for you at this year's Winter Show! With over 150 vendors, this is our biggest show of the year, and we know that it can take TIME to make the rounds and visit all the booths you want to see. So you've gotta be well fed, right?!

In addition to the concessions stand inside the Ex Hall, which is managed by Ceres Roasting and will be open all weekend long, we'll also have some awesome food trucks set up for you to enjoy all weekend long in the Founders' Court (just before you enter the Ex Hall, take a sharp right and head up the stairs). Here you'll find half a dozen food trucks to keep you happily fed and caffeinated all weekend long!

So grab an early dinner on your way in to Preview Night, have some lunch before you head in on Saturday or Sunday, or take a break to grab a quick bite to refuel during a long day of shopping. The steps leading down to the Ex Hall are always a great place to have a seat and enjoy some food, and there is also seating inside near the concessions stand as well.
