Saturday, May 31
7-11pm
Mrs. Murphy and Sons Irish Bistro — private event space


Your ticket includes:

Delicious eats: Snack on Mrs. Murphy's reuben sliders, chicken tenders, mac and cheese, brussel sprouts and more. Cold apps and warm bites will be served throughout the night.

Open tap: Toast to five more years with beer, wine, mocktails and more!

Mix & mingle: Get dressed up to catch up with your CUES buddies and supporters, and to make new friends who share your love of SCUBA... or of fun parties.

Games and prizes: Play our gift-card-in-a-bottle game, solve a pirate's puzzle, conquer the bingo board, or win a giant octopus in our raffle! There are plenty of opportunties to take home some treasure, and have fun in the process.

Donations galore: Dive into our Silent Auction, where every bid and donation helps support our mission of providing free and low-cost SCUBA training to historically excluded groups.


Know before you go:

Dress code: Saunter into our Soiree dressed to make an impression! Cocktail is recomended, but most importantly have fun, be festive and comfortable.

Do I need to be a CUES member to come? Nope! The Soiree is open to anyone who supports CUES' mission of diversity, curiosity and cameraderie. We encourage you to bring your friends, co-workers and family — plus, if you buy a 6-pack, you'll save on the cost of tickets.

Is there an after-party? You can keep the Soiree going after our event downstairs at Mrs. Murphy's, a charming irish pub with live music and full bar, no ticket needed.


Thank you to our supporters!

Frequently asked questions

Is there parking at Mrs. Murphy's?

Yes. There is a small lot next to the restaurant that is first-come, first-served. There is also ample metered street-parking along Lincoln Ave. We encourage all of our guests to be safe, and consider taking the El (the Brownline is around the corner) or a rideshare if needed.

What should I wear?

The dresscode for the event is cocktail — dress to impress! We encourage dressing up in something that makes you feel good and is celebratory.
