UPDATE 08/12/17 :
Just a quick update regarding capacities. The area we booked include both outdoor and indoor sections. We have reached the capacity for the indoor section. The outdoor section also has a large capacity, but it is prone to rain (which hopefully wont happen according to the weather forecast. Feel free to continue to RSVP, however any RSVPs after this comment are not guaranteed, and will be dependent upon the weather on the day. Thanks for your attention, and hope the current weather forecast is accurate. (Did I just jinx it?)

That's a 'maybe' from me, but that would depend on the date / time as well as venue :)
I suggest a binary poll (Yes, I'm coming vs Not coming) so that you can gauge how many people are interested.
edit also added preference for a friday night as well.
