There are several strategies that could be employed in order to attend the exclusive event without having an invitation. You could research any public events related to the event and try to enter through those venues, or look for a VIP who is attending and offering complementary tickets. You may also offer services or goods (i.e., provide bartending services, sell accessories such as sunglasses or hats) in exchange for tickets, or network with others who are hoping to enter. Lastly, contact the venue ahead of time and explain your situation - they may offer you a ticket if your story is moving enough.

There are a few ways to infiltrate an exclusive event without an invitation. The most effective and stealthy way is to arrive at the venue when it opens and then mingle with the attendees. Look for people who don't appear to know each other, approach them, introduce yourself and engage in friendly conversations. You can also try getting creative with your dress code: get dressed up just slightly better than everyone else but not too conspicuous so you don't attract any attention. Once you blend in, start casually asking questions about how they got their invitation or make small talk until you can slip away unnoticed when the event is winding down.  Alternatively, depending on the type of event it could be feasible to ask one of the staff for help; for instance at some night clubs there is often a coat check where patrons can leave their jackets or purses while they dance - sometimes guests checking coats will have handouts with details on how they obtained their guest list spot..
