The 2019 Victory Ball will be a lavish reception featuring cocktails and culinary creations by The American Sector Restaurant & Bar, live music, entertainment, and dancing, as well as unlimited access to the Museum’s amazing pavilions and exhibit galleries throughout the evening.

Sponsors and Patrons will receive early event entry starting at 6:00 p.m. as well as exclusive access to the Patron Party, featuring a cocktail reception and passed hors d’oeuvres, lounge seating, private full bar, and entertainment.

To honor the men and women who have served and continue to serve our country, special admission prices are offered to veterans and active-duty servicemembers.
