Dixon Dub: a Lip Sync Battle Benefit
2016-09-09 19:00 - 21:00 | Hilton Pensacola Beach, 12 Via De Luna Dr, Pensacola Beach, FL, 32561, United States
Innisfree Hotels ‘do good’ Corporate Social Responsibility program called The Hive, is proud to present an epic lip sync battle to raise funds for Pensacola’s Dixon School of the Arts.
Dub for Dixon will be held Friday, September 9, 2016, from 7 to 9 p.m. in the brand new ballroom at the Hilton Pensacola Beach (an Innisfree owned hotel).
The event will invite teams to battle it out for the lip-syncing champion and win amazing prizes, as well as engaged audiences to cheer them on. Fun concessions (food and drink) will be available for purchase.
Tickets will be $15 for General Admission and $1,000 to enter a team. Click here to buy a general admission ticket or email jill@innisfreehotels.com to enter a team or become a corporate sponsor.
Innisfree Hotels first became involved with Dixon School of the Arts when it was a struggling charter school, in jeopardy of closing. Founder and CEO Julian MacQueen and wife Kim took a special interest in the school, which inspired employees of the hotel company to ‘adopt’ the school – each property taking on clean-up, tutoring and mentorship of a different classroom.
Over time, Innisfree has worked to find new and exciting ways to raise funds and awareness for Dixon School of the Arts, a private K-8 school with a STEAM curriculum that enhances science, technology, engineering and math with a broad fine arts education. Students enjoy hands-on classes in photography, music, dance, yoga, visual arts and more, often embarking on field trips outside of the school building to engage and enlighten.

Pack a Picnic Dinner – BYO food, drink and chairs.

(If it rains this event will be cancelled and tickets transferred to another From the Ground Up Music Event ).
We are excited to announce that southern music maven Nikki Talley is making a pit stop in Pensacola to do a live concert ‘under the stars’ in From the Ground Up Garden on Wednesday, March 30th.
Nikki is a Life Magazine acclaimed heart-ache-honky-tonk style musician. She and herhusband Jason play hundreds of shows every year at festivals and renowned local venues across the US.
Her gorgeous voice and thoughtful songs hail from the mountains of North Carolina. Her stage presence is as energetic, electric and eclectic as her southern soul. Her sound is rounded out by her clawhammer style banjo and her husband, Jason Sharp’s, lush guitar tones and harmonies.
Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity to see this acclaimed southern musician in an intimate outdoor setting at a price that can’t be beat.
Proceeds from the concert will benefit From the Ground Up.
One thing she isn’t: afraid of the microphone. Talley has undeniable stage presence… –Mountain Express
Talley’s always silken, yet adaptable voice is on full display on this album, whispering sweet nothings to the listener on some songs, belting out her passion with full desperate power on others and crooning out her heartache honky-tonk style. – Life Magazine
