Donation Tier Info
What are the donation tiers?
They are limited bundles we sell before the event (pre-order only) which include custom merch, art, and fanmade photocards that we designed exclusively for this event! In the past we have sold extra items at the event, however due to our limited budget this year we are not ordering any extras. We strongly recommend reserving yours online now, pre-ordering is the only way to guarantee availability.Why are tiers important?
Donation tier packages are the best way to support our events! Hosting is expensive and we love to have cupsleeves, decorations, and other freebies for everyone, but if we do not break even at the end of an event, it will difficult for us to host more in the future. Donation packages, merch sales, and raffle tickets help us to recover financially and any extra funds are put into our budget for the next event!

The event is planned to be held outdoors in the side parking lot of Myomee Cafe, where we will have vendor tables, tier pick-ups, pc trading stations, free toploader decorating, sidewalk chalk, and an RDP!Cafe Rules:
Please be respectful to Myomee Cafe/New Seoul Plaza staff and customers. We are very fortunate they allow us to use their space, and cupsleeves bring an extra busy work day for the Cafe Baristas so please remember a generous tip is the best way to show our appreciation, along with being patient with orders, and keeping their facilities cleaner than we found it!We understand that it may be hot outdoors, but please be respectful to the cafe customers and please avoid claiming an indoor table for an extended period of time. If you are relaxing/cooling off indoors, please be mindful of your noise level and space you are using - do not leave your belongings unattended, and do not grab extra tables/chairs, leave those available for other customers if you can lets try to stick to 1 chair/table spot per person to keep the space open and available.If you are willing and able, please leave the front parking spaces open for New Seoul Plaza customers who are there for the Daebak restaurant, store, or not attending our event, especially if you plan to spend majority of the day at the cupsleeve event. It's okay if you have a physical limitation or any need to utilize the close spots, but if we can let's keep them open as a courtesy to show respect for their ongoing business.RDP: The RDP is scheduled to start at 2pm!

Lucky Carat FAQ
What is the Lucky Carat Pull & Prize Drop?
This year, we're doing something brand new instead of our usual raffle — and everyone wins every time! Purchase tokens at our host table, insert one into the Lucky Carat Pull machine, and see what you get. Every pull dispenses one of three things:
🃏 A holographic MittenCarats event photocard
📸 A random official Seventeen photocard
🎁 A Prize Drop ticket — redeem it at our Prize Drop table for a guaranteed prize from your winning level!Tokens: $2 each — or 17 tokens for $30 (bundle deal includes duplicate card swaps!)
In-person only — we hope to see you there! 🩷
Why no raffle this year?
We've loved our past raffles, but over time the format got tricky to run — long lines at the ticket table, crowding while filling out entry forms, and then everyone waiting around until the very end of the event for the drawing. We also used to sell entries online and then had to livestream the drawing, coordinate with multiple winners, and ship fragile or rare prizes — a lot of extra effort for our small volunteer team! And with only 3–5 prizes available, just a handful of Carats ever walked away with something.With the Lucky Carat Pull & Prize Drop, more people get to participate, every pull is guaranteed to give you something, and if you land a Prize Drop ticket you get to choose your reward from the display — which feels so much more fun than a random drawing!
Why is this in-person only?
We know this is disappointing for online Carats, and we're so sorry!🩷 The Lucky Carat Pull is a physical vending machine experience, and we haven't found a good way to extend that to online attendees yet. Shipping prizes in past raffles was also a significant extra cost and coordination challenge for our volunteer team. We hope you can join us at a future event!
What can I win?
Every pull gets you one of three things:🃏 A MittenCarats holo event photocard — fan-made and exclusive to this event
📸 A random official Seventeen photocard from one of their albums, tours, or misc collections
🎁 A Prize Drop ticket — bring it to our Prize Drop table to claim a prize from your winning level!
What's at the Prize Drop table?
We might show teasers/previews on our socials prior to the event so keep an eye for that, otherwise come to the event and check it out to see for yourself!Every prize drop ticket will specify what "Prize Level" you are able to redeem it for. You will be allowed to pick only 1 prize per winning ticket. You can pick from your tier or any level below your tier, but it can still only be 1 prize redeemed per ticket.
How do tokens work?
Tokens are sold exclusively at the MittenCarats host table for $2 each, or 17 tokens for $30. If you grab the bundle deal, we'll swap any duplicate cards you pull for a random equivalent pc! 🎉⚠️ Our tokens are unique to the Lucky Carat Pull machine — please don't confuse them with the crane machine tokens available in the New Seoul Plaza hallway!
