With DOMAINfest Global Just 2 Weeks Away Organizers Announce Plans For Three Fabulous Parties

The 2011 DOMAINfest Global conference gets underway two weeks from today at the oceanfront Fairmount Miramar Hotel in Santa Monica, California. Oversee.net, the organizers of the annual three-day extravaganza that will run February 1-3, just announced detailed plans for a series of eye-popping nightly parties that will cap each business day.  

 

Day one on Tuesday, February 1 will conclude with a Polynesian Paradise Party that will be held in the Fairmont's Pool Terrace and Miramar Gardens from 6:00-9:00 pm.  The event, sponsored by the .CO registry, will feature Polynesian music, dancers and cocktails, along with a worst Hawaiian shirt contest.

The next night will also bring a special treat - The Golden Era of Hollywood Party at the Mondrian Hotel’s famous SkyBar on Hollywood's Sunset Strip. That Wednesday evening event, sponsored by VeriSign, will run from 8:00-11:00p.m.  The party will feature music from Tinseltown's Golden Era, cigarette/candy girls, and classic black and white movies projected onto the building facade.

Then for the show's grand finale Thursday night, February 3, the Playboy Mansion will welcome DOMAINfest Global guests to DomainSponsor’s Third Annual Autism Fundraiser at Hugh Hefner's world famous estate.

This special event benefiting Jenny McCarthy’s Generation Rescue (an international movement of scientists, parents, and physicians researching the causes and treatments for autism, ADHD, and chronic illness) will run  from 8:00pm-1:00am.  A highlight of the party will be a silent auction of autographed sports and entertainment memorabilia.

DOMAINfest Global previous released an outstanding business Agenda for the show as well details about Moniker's big Live Premium Domain Auction Feb. 3 beginning at 4:30pm Pacific time. Registration for DOMAINfest Global is still open so it's not too late to claim a spot among the more than 600 domain industry professionals from around the world that are expected to converge on Santa Monica for the show.

In a related note, Oversee units Moniker and SnapNames, who are handling a special private auction for I.CO, are reminding interested parties that Friday (January 21) is the last day to complete the bidder qualification process required to take part in the auction. Bidding will open on Thursday, February 3, 2011 and conclude at 3:15 p.m. US Eastern time on Thursday, February 10.
