Corporate Conference - Break Out party of the Season!

When a conference comes to town and they have a free night for the attendees to go their own way.  Commonly, associated companies will host their own private party for attendees to promote relationships and further business with conference attendees. n Sometimes those parties are in the host hotel in a small break out room, other times they are off site where the host company can really create an experience guests won't soon forget.  
I've said it before and its still one of my favorite things.... being the best party of the conference is VERY rewarding.   Several weeks ago I provided lighting and DJ for a great corporate client, this party was outdoors in an affluent area of town that I thought sure would have the authorities at our door by 10:30 at least to ask us to tone down festivities.   An early 1pm set up for the uplights, band lighting and step and repeat lighting and the DJ system then back at 6 for the 7pm start.  We had planned for a 150 +/- crowd but once word got out about the party the guest list quickly grew to over 200 to be bused in. 

 The night started off with Brazilian Guitarist to welcome guests at 

the gate.Then the Brazilian Street band kicked in for an hour.

 The Samba Dancers were a huge hit as they did their 20 minute 

show and then stayed to dance the night away with the guests.

Dancing started around 10 and was set to go until 1am,  at 1am we were obviously not finished yet as the dancefloor was still full of party goers
