NOTS WEBSITE
Night of a Thousand Stevies is the best-known Stevie Nicks fan event in the world, a riot of shawls, lace, baby's breath, twirling, tambourines and great performance. This event began at JACKIE 60 eighteen years ago with four performers, and has grown into a true spectacle, featuring countless interpretations over a marathon night. As always, this Enchanted evening ends in a twirl of shawls and tambourines with the Battle of a Thousand Stevies near morning.
