A NEW YEAR'S EVE IN A CLASS ALL ITS OWN
Three of the cities top event producers, Donovan, Nate Mezmer & Mike Fitzgerald, are joining forces with The Spinsters of San Francisco and SOMA Magazine, to produce the final New Years Eve party ever at City Hall.
San Francisco’s City Hall is truly an architectural masterpiece and offers a magical setting to help usher in an inspired 2009. The building, created in 1915 during the brief “City Beautiful” movement is an awesome work of art and boasts a ceiling structure over 300 feet high - the fifth largest dome in the world – with a comfortable capacity of 3,000 guests.
The night will feature a live fashion show of the Spring 2009 Collections of world-famous fashion designers Prada and Dolce & Gabbana.
This night will also feature four impressive rooms of music & entertainment:
The Main Rotunda Room hosted by Donovan & The Spinsters of San Francisco with Sexy, Sophisticated House Music by DJ Donovan and Donovan's #1 resident DJ Hector Garza. This grand room with its unique and vast dome ceiling view, features access to the beautiful Mezzanine level and an exclusive section with multiple bars for VIP guests.
The Prada and Dolce & Gabbana Fashion Lounge hosted by SOMA Magazine. This lounge setting inspired by the designs of Prada and Dolce & Gabbana is located on the private 4th Floor offering the most breathtaking birds-eye views of the Main Rotunda Room where DJ Donovan will be performing. After the fashion show, take a closer look at all of the Prada and Dolce & Gabbana designs from the show available for order right off the runway as our fashion show models are staged on podiums as live mannequin fashion models. View streaming couture fashion shows from Prada and Dolce & Gabanna's runways in Milan, Paris, and New York.
The Hip Hop/ Mash Up Room in the North Light Court hosted by Nate Mezmer and Mike Fitzgerald with DJ Remeddy & the Designer Deejays: Just & Dan-Lo. This room, the largest of the three will feature two huge bars, an array of dance space and plenty of prime real estate for VIP table buyers.
The Pop Rock Electro Room in the South Light Court hosted by Bellstar Records featuring performances by Chris Clouse and sets by DJ Doctor J & Sep D. This room, the most intimate of the trio but still quite large, features another huge bar, plenty of VIP table space, and another big dance floor.
The Midnight Celebration will include an unprecedented Fireworks Show inside City Hall, a special dance performance by The Desired Temptations dance troupe, and a complimentary champagne toast.
The party will also feature D! Entertainment Presents "Live from the Red Carpet" with host Jessica Rae interviewing all of the most fashionable guests arriving on the red carpet. Fine Jewelry Designer Metal Noir will award one-of-a-kind diamond jewelry pieces to the "Most Elegant Dress of the Evening" and "Sexiest Dress of the Evening".
With each ticket sold, in association with The Spinsters, the event will help to raise money for the "City of Dreams" Charity Organization (www.cityofdreams.org).
THIS WILL BE THE LAST NEW YEAR'S EVE PARTY EVER AT CITY HALL!!!
The city has chosen not to continue opening City Hall for business on New Year's Eve after this year, so this will be you and your friends last opportunity to experience City Hall on New Years Eve. Can you afford to miss this "once in a lifetime" opportunity?
