Thanks to the incredible response to the Alliance in Bloom Gala, our initial table release sold out in record time! To welcome more guests to the celebration on May 8, we’re pleased to introduce a limited collection of newly released mezzanine seating—the Bloom Balcony in the Azadi Galleria.

This special release includes 50 seats with fantastic views of the stage, along with added perks such as access to top-shelf mezzanine bars, a private kitchen, and a unique vantage point for the evening’s performances.

Seating is arranged as 4-top half rounds overlooking the stage, and each $1,250 ticket includes the full Alliance in Bloom experience. Availability is limited, and we invite you to reserve your seats soon to be part of this unforgettable evening.
