๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ HOW ENTRY WORKS โ€” PLEASE READ

We have a reserved area specifically for the Lingos Global group, so everyone joining the event needs to choose ONE of these:

Important: The reserved Lingos area is for participating guests. If youโ€™d simply like to sit with or chat to the group without purchasing anything from the venue or paying the $4.50 entry, unfortunately we canโ€™t accommodate that.

This keeps the arrangement fair for the venue, the organisers and everyone supporting the event. โค๏ธ
