FAQ
Can I bring my own Satellite Sisters?
Yes! Please! Let us make your girlfriends get-away easy! We picked the town, the date, and the hotel and planned a few events for you. Plus, great rates on doubles and triples at the Hilton. So rally your Satellite Sisters, whether they are listeners or not. All are welcome!
Can I come on my own?
Yes! Please! Our intent is to make this weekend as welcoming and friendly as possible. Prior to the weekend, we plan on providing an app for all attendees to use to engage with other attendees in order to set up room shares, to coordinate airport shuttles or make other plans. There will be lots of opportunities to meet and greet other Satellite Sisters listeners over the weekend. And, there will be name tags for all!
Can I bring my kids?
We are planning an event best suited for those who are 16+. Children under 3 can attend for free if supervised by an adult at all times. Children 3+ are allowed, but must be ticketed to attend any function and be supervised by an adult at all times. The ticket fee for children 3+ is $299 . Please note, there will not be any childcare provided.
Do I have to stay at the Hilton to attend the Big Fun Weekend?
No, you don’t. But we’d love to have you stay at the Hilton with the special Satellite Sisters rate. (That is, if a weekend away at a swanky hotel with a pool, a lobby bar and great downtown locations appeals to you.) Most of our events will take place at the Hilton and the lobby is a great spot to hang out with other Satellite Sisters in off hours. That includes you, Minnesota Satellite Sisters! Staycation with us to get the most from the weekend.
Can I just buy a ticket to the podcast taping? Or the dinner?
The short answer is no. We’re working with the team at the Hilton to make sure the weekend is topnotch. The inclusive ticket pricing is for all the events over the weekend. A single fee is the most cost effective overall. Thanks for understanding.
Will there be food I can eat and beverages I can drink?
We hope so. You’ll be asked about dietary restrictions during registration. We’re choosing food and food services options that will work for a variety of diets. Same with beverages, from alcohol-free cocktails to beer and wine to great coffee.
Wait, what the heck is a Mamma Mia dance party?
In 2019, Lian hosted a charity fundraiser that was a ladies-only Mamma Mia-themed event. It was a huge hit and Julie said on the show, “If we ever do a Satellite Sisters dance party, it should be Mamma Mia themed.” Well, that dream is about to come true. So, step into your platform shoes and your Mamma Mia inspired clothes and hit the dance floor with us! Calling all Dancing Queens!
Will there be Satellite Sisters Big Fun Weekend Merch?
You bet! Our team of designers (Liz and Hooper) are working on a list of premium items to offer before the weekend (in case you and your Satellite Sisters want to theme dress. Which we fully support.) Stay tuned for details.
