theEvent benefit, a part of Dallas’ Super Bowl weekend festivities, will include open bar, art, entertainment and additional performances from guest DJs and the Goss-Micheal Foundation scholarship winners.

Prince is an artist that hundreds of millions of people around the world admire. Our scholarship winners and all of us are honored that Prince has selected The Goss-Michael-Foundation as the beneficiary.”
The benefit will begin at 8PM at theEvent Tent Complex in Downtown Dallas on Feb. 4. Tickets can be purchased at PrinceDallas.com. Visit Twitter.com/theEventDallas for more information.
