5 reasons to put some class into your Thirsty Thursday
How about adding some class to Thirsty Thursday?
Opera Carolina’s young professional group, BRAVO!, is a great way to get out and about and meet new people. This year they are kicking off their season Oct. 15 with a chic Prelude to the Season Party. Even if you’re not an opera aficionado, here are 5 reasons this is a must-do night out:
(1) Location, location, location Opera Carolina has teamed up with Label night club at the NC Music Factory for quite the posh backdrop. From awesome music to performer meet and greets, there’s a little something for everyone.

(2) Free stuff! (my favorite)
My motto is, “If it’s free, it’s for me,” and BRAVO! knows the way to my heart. They have partnered with Channel 96.1 FM radio station and will be doing some pretty fantastic giveaways all night.
(3) Liquid courage
Obviously the thirsty part of Thursday has to be addressed. Label offers some amazing cocktails for you to sip on while you mingle. Not only that, but your $20 ticket gets you some great VIP deals on drinks and bottle service specials.
(4) Actually being social while you network
One of the main motivations behind this young professional organization is giving people the ability to reach out and create new contacts. Their website even says their goal is to “provide opportunities to gather, socialize and network — all while embracing the majestic art form of opera.”

(5) Suave is good
Feel free to take a break from jeans. If you’re feeling especially fancy, maybe a cocktail dress or three-piece suit. Or not. Whatever your heart desires.
