Greenwich Town Party Tickets Are Now Available

The Greenwich Town Party (GTP), the fifth annual day-long family music festival planned for Saturday, May 23, has kicked off six months of community celebrations.

Several levels of tickets have gone on sale for the 2015 Greenwich Town Party that will be held at Roger Sherman Baldwin Park. In order to guarantee entry to the 2015 GTP, Greenwich residents and businesses will have this pre-sale opportunity, both online and in person, to secure three different levels of tickets – the Block Party Gift Set, Neighbor Tickets and Sponsor Packages.

The Block Party Gift Set, which includes six general admission tickets for $750, is available throughout the holidays until Dec. 31. The official on-sale date for general admission tickets is Feb. 5, 2015.

Neighbor Tickets, which cost $250 apiece, provide access to a designated Neighborhood Area with wine, beer and snacks.

GTP Sponsor Packages for individuals and businesses are available now, starting at $1,250, and provide access to the Sponsor Tent with catered food and beverages throughout the day and evening.

Sponsors packages, neighbor tickets and donations from town residents and local businesses provide the majority of party funding each year, allowing more people to attend. Thanks to the continued generosity of sponsors and donors, the community ticket prices have been reduced to a fraction of what they would have been for such a large event.

The GTP headliner and bands will be announced in 2015. For more information on sponsorship packages and tickets for the 2015 GTP, please visit the web site at greenwichtownparty.org.

Greenwich Town Party to Celebrate Local Stories of Community, Generosity

The Greenwich Town Party (GTP) also has launched the GTP Community Heroes Campaign, an initiative that celebrates the people who exemplify the generous spirit of Greenwich and what makes some 60,000 residents proud to call it their hometown. Greenwich residents will have the opportunity to recognize the remarkable people who touch their lives and enrich their community – from a friend or neighbor to a teacher, coach, doctor or firefighter. Unsung heroes are often silent strengths in the community, and this year the GTP would like to voice their contributions.

One hundred heroes will be chosen at random throughout the year to receive a pair of tickets to the 2015 Greenwich Town Party to celebrate being an integral part of the fabric of Greenwich. Every nominated hero will be recognized publicly at this year’s event.

Greenwich residents and businesses can submit stories of local heroes via email, GTPheroes@greenwichtownparty.org or any GTP social media platform with the hashtag #gtpheroes [Facebook facebook.com/GreenwichTownParty, Twitter Twitter.com/greenwichtown, Instagram: Instagram.com/GreenwichTownParty]. Nominees will be showcased on the GTP web site at greenwichtownparty.org/heroes.

The Greenwich Town Party is an annual, day-long family festival held on the Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend. Since 2011, the GTP has brought the town together to celebrate Greenwich pride and the spirit of giving with music, food, and family activities, which organizers describe as a “giant block party.” The goal of the GTP is to encourage community spirit that extends throughout the year.
