Monday, November 10: Rainbow Mixer
Rainbow Mixer
Monday, November 10
8:00 PM – 11:00 PM
Ticket: General Admission: $5 (standing room only)
VIP Ticket: $50 (includes access to VIP seating area and drink ticket)
Our Rainbow Mixer remains one of the most attended (and late running!) networking events; this year we’ll be holding it at “The Avenue” entertainment space, immediately across the street from the convention center.
We’ll have food trucks, alcoholic and soft drinks, and plenty of floorspace to mix and mingle with your peers in the first part of the evening, before we transition into our performance showcase! Following on from the popular events in Vancouver BC and Phoenix AZ, we’re going and bigger and better with full AV support, LED screens and visual effects to elevate your performers (new and old!) like never before.
Tickets for this one are limited, with a maximum capacity of 500 people, so register for this as part of your conference programming and we’ll see you there (with or without glitter). And if you feel like performing, reach out to Dr Lewis Bartlett and Tom Sheehan (lewis.bartlett@uga.edu / thomas.sheehan@uga.edu) to get yourself committed to stretching your performance elytra.
