King Christmas Wawa declares that The Arrival of March will have at least a 50% increase in ticket cost from the $40 charge for The Arrival of February. The king states that this money will be used to help fund the preparation for the event. The king states directly that "this is a compromise for exempted taxing in Newbeak". The price of tickets for the events have sprung up in price from just $20 to $80 planned for March.
Due to an official mandate on documented pay for all units in King Christmas Wawa's Military, a rise in funding is needed, and this is the easiest way to go about it. The army will also have some aid by the wealthy sponsors of the events to come, such as Trout Marshal. Trout has agreed to sponsor The Arrival of February so far. The army will also construct several V.I.P. areas for seating of future arrivals. All of the available V.I.P. sections have been sold for The Arrival of February, and the army encourages wealthy citizens of Newbeak to contribute by purchasing their seats for The Arrival of March. This will eliminate the possible requirement for future wealth taxing in the city.
