Attendees will enjoy one complimentary beverage with the cost of entry, plus delicious bites from LIPS Fort Lauderdale and Tulio's Tacos and Tequila Bar. Libations sponsored in part by Stoli Vodka and Hunters Nightclubs. Special tribute performances by Joanna James, Velvet Lenore and Erika Norell. With special guest hosts Joe Posa as Joan Rivers and Shawn Palacious with DJ Aulden Brown.
