The VIP ticket holders will be able to access a private lounge on the 2nd floor of Paisley Park where they will receive a special gift that is only available at this event. There will be apps and drinks. There will also be an exclusive VIP behind-the-scenes look at Prince and Paisley Park artifacts.

Friday there is a special panel consisting of people that Prince worked with, and concerts from others. There will be a show with BrownMark and members of Mazarah and a special showing of Prince "Live On The Big Screen".of a show from 1992 accompanied by members of the New Power Generation.

Friday and Saturday at Paisley Park there will be a panel of people Prince worked with including his former wife and NPG dancer Mayte Garcia, longtime photographer Randee St. Nicholas, collaborator, and Purple Rain co-star Jill Jones, longtime Paisley Park Studios engineer Tom Garneau. Jill Jones has not been in the public eye very much so it will be a treat.
