What is the "Birthday Party"?
American Girl is celebrating its 25th birthday this year. To celebrate, the fashion show is offering a special "Birthday Party" package for girls who are also celebrating their birthdays with a party at the show. This package is for the birthday girl and up to 11 guests (including at least one chaperone) and includes recognition at the show, a birthday cake, party favors for child guests, and a special Girl of the Year gift for the birthday girl! There is only one birthday party available for each show.
How does seating work?
Tables can accommodate up to 12 people, and seating will be assigned according to the size of your party.
When is it too late to order tickets?
Our website will be updated to reflect any sold-out status for the shows. Late orders may be fulfilled depending on availability and tickets will be placed at Will Call and you will be notified.
My daughter is a model in the fashion show. Do I need a ticket for her? Do I need a ticket for me?
You do not need to purchase a ticket for your daughter who is appearing in the fashion show. You do need a ticket for yourself and any other guests that will be attending the show. A ticket is required for everyone except for show models.
What are the seating arrangements at the show?
All seats are reserved and you will receive your table number at registration on the day of the show. Seating is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Can you accommodate large parties?
Parties larger than 10-12 people will be split among two or more tables (depending on the size of your party). We will do our best to have the tables near each other.
Can groups of friends be seated together?
Parties who wish to be seated together MUST order tickets together. Seating requests made after orders are placed are not guaranteed.
I would like a private table for my party.
If you have a party of less than 12, it is likely that additional guests will be seated at your table. If you would like to purchase a private table, please contact us at agfs@saturdayclub.org to discuss options.
I cannot attend the show but would like to purchase Raffle Tickets, Pre-Ordered Souvenirs, or make a donation to The Saturday Club. How can I do this?
Please place your order online, using the ticket order form. A ticket purchase is not required.
Fashion Show Information
Do the girls attending the show dress up and bring their dolls?

Girls can bring their dolls to the fashion show Doll Hair Salon for a fabulous new hairstyle and enjoy the show together. Girls can also pre-order the fashion show exclusive treat seat just for their dolls (note: there may be space limitations on use of the treat seat during the actual fashion show).
How long is the fashion show?
The fashion show is approximately 2 hours long, including a 20 minute intermission.
Why is the show recommended for children 6 and up?
This recommendation is from American Girl Programs. For the maximum enjoyment of the audience, infants and toddlers will not be admitted under any circumstance. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.
Will a meal be served at the show?
Yes, a meal is included in the ticket price and is a sit-down luncheon. This year's selection for adults is a chicken salad croissant sandwich with potato salad. For children, the meal selection is chicken fingers with french fries. All meals come with fresh fruit, beverages (water, iced tea, and lemonade), and a dessert.
Is there wheelchair access at The Desmond Hotel?
Yes, The Desmond is wheelchair accessible. The ballroom where the fashion show is held is on the ground floor and does not require the use of an elevator. If you have a guest in a wheelchair in your party, please make sure to contact us so a proper table is reserved for you.
Will souvenirs and merchandise be available to purchase at the fashion show?

If you are interested in these exclusive souvenirs, please pre-order them with your ticket reservations to guarantee availability and avoid disappointment.

Guest Model Experiences
We are sorry, but the Guest Model Experience is not offered at the 2011 American Girl Fashion Shows.
The immensely popular Doll Hair Salon is returning to the 2011 shows. A variety of hairstyles will be available for girls to choose for their dolls. Dolls will be styled by hairstyling professional during the show. The different hairstyles range in price from $15-$25 depending on style, complexity, and adornments. Please note that much-loved dolls may not end up looking brand-new, but their hair will look very pretty!
The Doll Hair Salon is available on a first-come, first-served basis, so don't forget to check-in to the salon before the show. Girls can drop off their dolls after registration, choose a hairstyle, and when the doll is ready, she will be delivered to the table by one of our Junior Volunteers.
