USO Variety & Big Band Dinner Show

BUY TICKETS GALLERY

An evening of fun, food and entertainment is gearing up for our 7th year!!

A time that takes you back to yesteryear, where big band music filled the air and Bob Hope took all the troops by storm with his traveling USO shows, is what our USO Variety & Big Band Dinner show is all about. Held in an airplane hangar decorated with WWII memorabilia and photos, you’ll think you’ve been transported back into time. A full course dinner with light beverages will be provided by Lighthouse Catering, guests may bring their own beer &  wine.

This year we welcome back local big band favorite, Smooth Sound and welcome for the 1st time, Ken Huff and Mr Goodwood, Ms Delaware, Chelsea Bruce and The Delmarvelous Dolls (a group that takes you back to the music of the Andrew Sisters). So bring your dancing shoes, we encourage you to dress as if you were in the 40’s, have your picture taken in front of B25 Bomber, Panchito or any other of our military vehicles.

The W & W USO Variety & Big Band Show has been a consistent sell-out over the years, so reserve your seat today. Tables of 8 can be reserved.

Tickets are $50 and on sale here or by calling the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce at 302-856-1544
