dress code

come dressed for a 21+ homecoming night out.

clean, stylish, and event-appropriate attire is encouraged. venue management reserves the right to enforce its dress-code requirements. if you look good you feel good. this is our chance to show today’s students what central really feels like outside the classroom — while creating something that still feels special for the alumni, creatives, founders, professionals, tastemakers, and culture shifters coming back home.

the students get the experience. the alumni get the nostalgia. everybody gets after class.

large bags, prohibited items, or anything security determines may interfere with guest safety may not be allowed inside.
