Following a massively successful toy drive last year, DMNW and Foundation Nightclub are teaming up once again to spread holiday cheer this December! But this year we’re going bigger and uglier.
The Pacific Northwest EDM community rallied together last winter to donate two car-fulls of toys, and hundreds of dollars, to the Seattle Children’s Hospital. We know that our generous rave family has the heart to top that in 2017. In fact, we’re so confident that we got a massive headline artist for year two: Dada Life!
There will be lots of great music, tons of prizes, and an abundance of holiday cheer at Foundation Nightclub on Saturday, December 23rd. Check out the details below to figure out how you can join the fun at the best ugly sweater party in the Northwest, while getting a chance to secure all of your 2018 Northwest festival plans!
The Show
A proper holiday party needs quality music and ugly sweaters, and the second DMNW + Foundation Toy Drive will have both. Featuring Dada Life, you’re invited to the best ugly sweater party of the holiday season! In addition to Dada Life’s first Seattle show since September of 2016, those in attendance will be treated to a B2B set from local favorites Power Up and Johnny Monsoon, and an opening set from Paul Oswald!
There will even be an appearance from none other than Santa Claus! Pictures will be available with St. Nicholas throughout the night to commemorate the evening of giving and cheer. (Plus, you can get one last word in with the big guy before Christmas!)
Tickets and VIP tables are on-sale Wednesday, December 6th. The DMNW team will be out in full force, enjoying some of the best aspects of our great community while dancing the night away to some of the best music on the planet.

The Prizes
Those who donate toys won’t only enjoy the gift of giving, but of receiving as well. A donation of a toy or cash at the venue, or money online, earns you a chance at winning one of several amazing prizes, including our incredible 2018 Festival Ticket Grand Prize! That’s several chances to win amazing prizes for each donation!
What’s this Grand Prize, you ask? Each entry will give one lucky donor the chance to win (2) VIP tickets to Resolution 2018, Lucky 2018, and Paradiso 2018! You read that correctly; two VIP tickets to each of the next three USC Events massives, all for a donation of a toy or cash!

How to Donate
All donations of toys and cash, along with a portion of ticket sales, will be contributed to Seattle Children’s Hospital, one of the nation’s top five pediatric research centers according to U.S. News & World Report. Seattle Children’s Research Institute is dedicated to making breakthrough discoveries that help prevent, treat, and eliminate childhood disease.
Donate in-person: The best way to donate is to bring a toy to the show, then party the night out with us! You can also bring cash to donate to Seattle Children’s and still be entered to win a prize.
