Hey Zedheads, it's finally time! After 11 seasons (and 12 years), our beloved show is ending. So let's get together and experience it in style and among friends :)

Tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/twd-finale-party-tickets-397447394857

What: A screening of The Walking Dead finale followed by a live podcast with special guests and prizes, plus some optional activities over the weekend

When: Sunday, November 20, 8:30pm-midnight

Where: The New Parkway Theater, 474 24th St. Oakland, CA 94612, across the Bay from San Francisco

Details: Join us for a screening of The Walking Dead finale, followed by a live podcast featuring Jason, Lucy, Karen, and Chris (of The Talking Dead Podcast), and maybe a few other special guests, plus some prizes to be given away.

We'll be watching at The New Parkway Theater, a community-centered cinema and pub located in Oakland’s Uptown district. This theater is fantastic! I couldn't dream of a better place for this. We'll be sitting back and relaxing in cozy couches while watching the finale and live podcast together (we'll, I'll be doing the podcast). Plus, they have seriously yummy food and beer and wine that can be delivered right to your theater seat, all at affordable prices.

Other activities and notes: The theater is in Oakland, across the Bay from San Francisco. Many of us are turning this into a fun vacation weekend. Things are still in the planning stages, but we'll probably have a few optional events, like:

  • An Alcatraz tour (so great, I've done it a few times and highly recommend joining in!)
  • A walk across the Golden Gate Bridge
  • And possibly a cocktail party at Karen's house :)

So you may want to secure accommodations in San Francisco, and then take public transportation or Uber to the theater on Sunday. San Francisco has a rapid transit line (BART) that runs across the bridge, so I think we'll plan to meet at a BART station on the SF side for people who want to head over together.

I know several Zedheads have already gotten rooms at the Infinity Hotel in SF, so you may want to look into that. It's at infinityhotelsf.com.

Alcatraz excursion info: Rima has been working on reserving group tickets for a tour of Alcatraz Island during the weekend of the finale. If we have enough people, we can get a group rate, but we need to act fast! We don't know the group ticket cost yet, but individual tix are $41 each, so it'll be less than that. 

So if you're interested, pleaase fill out this form and pick preferred times: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfaZgeT4vB56XyzNEltqYOrab5GYsUVFWr5KYw_kIfOx6Z3-Q/viewform?fbclid=IwAR20NVX4bPN1FQrBFFM1aoeLZFGFMUJ_QqQ6jNKNGien_0n6fGOE6fsgxiQ
