This year’s 10th annual Glitz & Sticks: A Celebrity Casino Evening is hosted by the Tampa Bay Lightning Players and benefits the Tampa General Hospital Children’s Medical Center and the Lightning Foundation. As in previous years, Glitz & Sticks attendees will enjoy casino games, dancing, entertainment, distinct auctions, gourmet dining and more.
That is not all though, as this year’s event will feature a number of new interactive experiences that will allow fans to get even more up close and personal with Lightning players, coaches and personalities.
Ever wonder if you could hang on the ping pong table with Marty St. Louis? Beat Victor Hedman at foosball? Those are just two of the newest experiences available at this year’s Glitz & Sticks. There will also be air hockey and a photo booth. Auctions will also be enhanced this year as guests can use electronic eBidders to make and monitor their bids. This year’s event will be hosted by former Lightning captain and 2004 Stanley Cup Champion Dave Andreychuk, current vice president of fans and business development.
The event will kick off with the DEX Imaging Patron’s Party from 5-6 p.m. for event sponsors with Lightning players, coaches and staff. At 6 p.m. the doors will open to general ticket holders. Dress is formal or cocktail, and parking information will be emailed after ticket purchase.
