Sunset Silo City: Vertical
Thursday 6th Aug, 2015 → Thursday 27th Aug, 2015
EVENT DATES
Thursday, Aug 6th
Thursday, Aug 27th
Being atop the silos at sunset is an experience unlike any other. Silo City: Vertical will take you to the top of the American and Perot complexes. Approximately two and half hours in length, you will experience all of the history and mechanics of the grain elevator, as well as the malt production process in the Perot malthouse on this in-depth tour. A look at some of the regenerative projects ongoing at Silo City is included. 6:00-9:00pm on Thursday, August 6 and Wednesday, August 27.
Please note that Silo City: Vertical is not recommended for those with a fear of heights. Participants in this tour must be physically able to go up approximately 100 feet (ten stories) of stairs and a short interior ladder to reach the top – and then come back down! The elevators have been out of commission for years, so stairs are the only way to go.
This tour includes dinner at Silo City at the end of the tour!
