And you thought your high school reunion was awkward.

The three major Democratic candidates for president will share dinner in Nevada on Jan. 6 at the invitation of Sen. Harry Reid and the Nevada State Democratic Party.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley will attend the “Battle Born/Battleground” First in the West Caucus Countdown Dinner ahead of the state’s nominating caucus on Feb. 20.

The dinner, the location of which has not yet been specified, will mark the second time this campaign season that the three have made a joint appearance in Nevada. The first time was at the presidential debate on Oct. 13.

The dinner’s menu has not been released.
