At the event, a specialty Five Points cocktail will be revealed thanks to Dave’s Pub and Jose Cuervo Tradicional.
Advanced tickets are $30 for an individual and $50 for a couple. These are available for purchase at the Vulcan Park and Museum Website! At the gate, single tickets will be $35 and couple tickets will be $55. Each ticket holder will receive a coupon for a complimentary beer from Good People Brewing Company.

TODAY IS THE DAY! REV Birmingham is celebrating 10 years of creating vibrant commercial districts in the City of Birmingham. Today is all about celebrating the past decade of success and all that we have accomplished. It all started ten years ago when two organizations – Operation New Birmingham and Main Street Birmingham – merged to create the one and only REV Birmingham. We have covered so much ground since then, from historic building rehab consulting all the way to our refresh of 20th Street North – and we are looking forward to seeing what the future holds for us here at REV.
