HOST IT (5).png

If guest purchases total less than $300 the host simply covers the remaining balance at the conclusion of the event - but you don't lose that money. 

​

Choose merchandise from the Hat & Patch Bar equal to the remaining value or receive a DMC gift card for the difference. Gift card is redeemable in store or at another hat & patch bar pop up.

Before your event, we'll ask a little about your group - interests, themes, styles and overall vibe - so we can bring a patch assortment that makes sense for your guests. 

Not sure what you'll like? We can help with that too.

Our mobile assortment is curated specifically for off-site events and will not include every patch available in our Downtown Waukesha Hat & Patch Bar. Specific patch designs cannot be guaranteed.

frequently asked questions 

Can i reschedule?

Yes. With at least 48 hours' notice, your booking fee can transfer to a new available date. Changes made with less than 48 hours' notice will require a new booking fee.

what about bad weather?

Outdoor events require a backup location. If severe weather makes travel unsafe or impractical, we'll work with you to reschedule.

Fill out the form and we'll be in touch to confirm availability and get the party started!

Submitting an inquiry does not reserve your date. Your event is reserved once availability is confirmed and the $75 nonrefundable booking fee has been paid.
