It's on Friday, February 12, 2016.

You can pay from $50 to $50,000 to see the Democratic presidential candidates at this event.

Location: St. Paul RiverCentre, 175 W Kellogg Blvd, St. Paul, MN 55102.

Purchase tickets:

Update:

Getting photographed with the candidates is an extra $2,000, and so someone could spend $52,000 per ticket.

I bought two tickets for $50 each.

Update B:

The $50 tickets have sold out but $75 tickets are available (as of this writing).

Update C:

$500 tickets are most affordable still available (as of this writing).

that it all goes to the state DFL for operating expenses and for covering costs involved in running elections statewide (and, of course, covering the costs of the fundraiser).
