Hey Young Dems! 💃 We’ve been getting a LOT of questions about our dress code, so here’s a little inspo and vision board for the 4th Annual Demmys Awards this Friday, March 6th!

Take “disco elegance” as an excuse to wear your brightest and flashiest pieces—glitter and sequins are welcome! Our event is formal, so break out those long flowing dresses and snazzy suits. We’ll be wearing comfortable walking shoes and campaign t-shirts for the rest of the year, so take this chance to dress up and go all out!

At the end of the day, we are all just looking forward to celebrating our special awardees and hearing from our amazing keynote speaker. Come in whatever makes you feel the most comfortable, especially if it’s well-suited for dancing and a wonderful night out! 

There is still time to grab your ticket to join us this Friday! Visit the link in our bio for more information.

A big THANK YOU to all of our sponsors for this year’s Demmys Awards! 🗳️🫏

Your support helps us organize, uplift young leaders, and invest in the future of progressive candidates, ballot measures, and causes across San Diego. 💙🩵

Please join us in congratulating these exemplary awardees for the 4th annual Demmys! Each of these young and young-at-heart leaders have demonstrated a commitment to advancing the fight of Young Democrats and we look forward to celebrating their work and achievements. 💙🩵

We’re just one week away from our event! Get your tickets at the link in our bio so you don’t miss this exciting opportunity to celebrate joy in resistance, hear from Rep. Malcom Kenyatta, and get fired up for the work ahead!

🗓️ Mark your calendars: the San Diego County Young Democrats’ 4th Annual Demmy Awards are right around the corner!

This year, we are humbled and excited to feature a very special guest speaker: Pennsylvania State Representative, Vice Chair of the Democratic National Committee, and fellow Young Democrat 🩵

Finding joy in times of fear and darkness is one of the most powerful acts of resistance that we have. As we continue organizing, fighting back against authoritarianism, and building a more just future, we’re reminded that joy itself is a political act—and one they can never take from us. ✊

Join us as we celebrate the achievements of 2025 and honor the hard work, organizing, and advocacy of Young Democrats and our allies across San Diego County. Get your tickets (voting members in good standing attend free!) or sponsor our event by scanning the QR code or visiting the links in bio! 💃
