What's Brass on Tap?

Brass on Tap is our most important fundraising event each season and we're thrilled to return to the beautiful Como Lakeside Pavilion at Como Park in St. Paul! We're offering a delicious dinner, a concert and an dessert social so mark your calendars now!

If you haven't visited the Como Lakeside Pavilion you're in for a treat! There's a large stage with a completely covered seating area, so we're planning to host the event rain-or-shine, but do stay tuned to our Facebook page in the event of a cancellation due to severe weather.

How much are tickets?

Individual Adult All-Inclusive tickets are $80 for the entire event with dinner or $20 for the concert and dessert social event only (which begins at 7:30). Kids dinner tickets are $20 or $10 for the concert and dessert social event only.

Purchase an $80 all-inclusive per-seat ticket or table sponsorship (which is 8 total all-inclusive tickets) and you'll get the best experience for the evening, including the following:

One free drink ticket and Happy Hour with CSB musicians beginning at 5:30. Your all-inclusive ticket includes one free drink ticket and once you've used it up beer, wine and nonalcoholic beverages will be available for purchase at the outdoor Pavilion bar.

A new-for-2024 delicious dinner catered by the Dock and Paddle including fresh salads, roasted chicken or porchetta and a host of yummy veggies. Check out the menu below!

Reserved preferred seating for the concert portion of the evening. If you purchase a table (8 seats) you can guarantee you and your crew can sit together all evening long!
