Ty Pennington speaks at Port Huron Town Hall on Nov. 9 at McMorran
PORT HURON — Ty Pennington is the Nov. 9 speaker at Port Huron Town Hall, at 10:30 a.m. at McMorran Place Theater, 701 McMorran Blvd.
The Town Hall site says every performance this season starts at 10:30 a.m. at that theater. WGRT, in a Nov. 3 item, said doors open at 9:30 a.m. and the program runs until noon, with tickets through the McMorran box office. The Thumb Coast listing gives the same clock, the same address, and the box-office phone (810) 985-6166, plus porthurontownhall@gmail.com.
The series’ own 2026 schedule says this is the 72nd season of a nonprofit founded in 1955. It says the group has presented more than 334 programs. Monday’s host is Chuck Gaidica. The other dates on that sheet are Jennifer Grey on Sept. 14, Jim Morris on Oct. 12, and Sean Hartley on Dec. 14. All of them are Mondays at 10:30 a.m.
The luncheon is a separate ticket
Season ticket holders can buy a luncheon that follows the talk. The schedule says luncheons start at noon at Port Huron Golf Club, 4101 Fairway Drive in Fort Gratiot, and that seats are limited so the lunch ticket has to be bought ahead. On the day of the show, the information table in the McMorran lobby can answer membership questions. The sheet says many speakers take questions, and some sign autographs or pose for photos. It does not promise that Pennington will.
The Town Hall page describes Pennington as the host of Trading Spaces and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, and later of Ty Breaker, Battle on the Beach, and Rock the Block. It calls him an author and a designer. That bio is the organizer’s, not a review of the talk he will give Monday.
What is not on the organizer’s page
A Times Herald story reported a single-ticket price of $51.40. That figure is not on the Town Hall schedule or the current-season page read for this story, so it is not repeated as the price. The McMorran box office is the place to ask. The photo is the tower, not the theater seats.
Christina Ward is listed as this season’s president. The series sells four-show season tickets with the lunch as an option, not a requirement. The schedule’s own count is more than 334 programs across 71 prior seasons, which is the organizer’s history, not a claim that every one of those talks sold out.
Monday’s clock is the part that will not move if the bio does: 9:30 a.m. doors in the WGRT account, 10:30 a.m. start on the Town Hall page, McMorran Place Theater. The golf-club lunch is in Fort Gratiot, not in the theater, and only for people who bought that ticket ahead.
