I want to sincerely thank you for the incredible opportunity my wife and I received through your organization. As a veteran, it means so much to be recognized—and to be gifted tickets to Essence Festival 2025 was truly a blessing. Not only were the tickets complimentary, but the seats were amazing—extremely close to the stage, allowing us to really feel the energy and excitement of the show. We made a full day out of it! We enjoyed both the pre- and post-show Essence activities, grabbed a bite to eat right from the streetcar, and even visited the New Orleans Convention Center before the show started. We had a blast seeing artists like Muni Long, Master P, and Doug E. Fresh perform live—it was a night to remember! I’m so grateful for the generosity of Vet Tix and all the sponsors who make these moments possible for veterans and their families. We’re already looking forward to your next event!

We had four people in our group and two had to warm up because of how good the air conditioning is in Ceasar Superdome, but they wanted to pass along a very heart felt thanks. Three generations were able to not only see their first Essence Festival, but also enjoy the community and vibe of New Orleans. This was truly a wonderful experience!!! Thank you so much for your support.
