Boots & Bourbon

Giddy up for a great cause!

Join us for another magical Dake Foundation event! We are back at Saratoga Performing Arts Center this year for a night of incredible food, entertainment, and surprises — stay tuned, more details to come!

2025 sponsorships are now available — limited general admission tickets are also on sale, get them before they sell out!

 

Frequently asked questions:

What should I wear?
Anything goes! People come in anything from casual dress to business casual to full costume… any everything in between! Wear shoes that work well on grass — and come ready to have a great time!

Where should I park?
Our main tent will be located on the grassy field behind the Hall of Springs. You may park in the Hall of Springs or Patrons’ lots and enter through the main gate, registration will be just down the path. (we will have a golf cart at the gate for anyone who needs assistance)

Where should I sit?
There will be reserved seating for Ring of Fire, Honky Tonk Highway, and Rhinestone Cowboy sponsors — and lots of open seating for everyone else! This is not a formal “sit down” affair, we just ask for your attention during a brief speaking program. The rest of the time feel free to mingle and enjoy!

What if it rains?
Unless weather imposes unsafe conditions, this event will be held rain or shine. We have the best crowd that knows how to have a good time no matter what!

Other questions? Reach out, we are happy to help!
