The Sporting Life: Bloody Mary Festival Rescheduled Edition

Okay, so last week remember I told you about an amazing festival that celebrates the favorite brunch cocktail, the Bloody Mary, that was scheduled for Saturday, March 14?

Well, thanks to that frisky and pesky little coronavirus, the festival has been rescheduled for the summer. Here, I’ll let the organizers speak for themselves in an email i received just before press time this week:

Bloody Mary Lovers,
In light of the current situation regarding the coronavirus and after much deliberation, we have decided to postpone this Sat-urday’s Bloody Mary Festival – Nashville. The new date is Saturday, July 25, 2020 (at the same venue).

The well-being of our attendees and participants is most important to us, so let’s REALLY enjoy this event when there will be nothing to worry about.

If you already purchased a ticket, you have 2 options:
OPTION 1: Sit tight and hold on to those tickets. Summer is just around the corner and we’ll party hard on Saturday, July 25th.

OPTION 2: If July 25th, doesn’t work for you, we will gladly issue a refund to you. If you would like a refund, please complete this form: http://bit. ly/nash-refund. You have plenty of time to think about it and request a refund by May 31, 2020.

If you have specific questions, please email us at: thebloodymaryfest@gmail.com.

Thanks for understanding.

With love,
The Bloody Mary Festival Crew
