Party Gras 2006
New Orleans, Louisiana – Feb 24 (Friday) – 28 (“Fat” Tuesday), 2006

http://partygras_nola.tripod.com is where you can get a good look at what it is all about. I will have to launch new pages for next year's event... but in the meantime, look at what we did in 2003...yes, it has been 3 years since we've done New Orleans for Mardi Gras. Need more info? partygras@neworleans.com

OVERVIEW…The country's most famous super party. People from all over the country gather for one of the wildest street parties on Earth. Join us as we make our return to the “Big Easy” during the week of the biggest event New Orleans hosts annually. Celebrities

will be seen on floats each day, parties will take place in the streets, clubs, bars and anywhere people congregate, and of course, some of the best food and live music in the southwest. Despite the historic destruction the city has faced, many have stepped in to bring the city of New Orleans back to life again…proceeds from our tour will do the same.

WMC is March 24-28, Mixcraft In Miami is March 23 & 24, and Global Gathering is March 18 & 19
We offer two packages that combine the very best of all Spring Break offerings!

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE…Winter Music Conference, in its 21st year, is regarded as the singular networking event in the dance music industry, attracting professionals from over 60 different countries. With its high concentration of top international artists, DJs and industry professionals, WMC permeates the international press and is thereby one of the most publicized events in the business. Every aspect of the industry is represented including the top technological innovators, artists, DJs, producers, radio and video programmers, retailers, distributors, audio manufacturers and many more. There are countless reasons why people from all over the world return year after year for this event, the most outstanding one being that there is nothing else in the world like it.

ABOUT MIXCRAFT IN MIAMI…Within the same weekend as the Winter Music Conference, Spintertainment Internet Radio and its parent company, Mixcraft Media, Inc., will present its first ever “Mixcraft in Miami DJ and artist showcase.
”Mixcraft In Miami” is a two night party and showcase combination. We feature DJs from NYC, Chicago and Miami. We are going to give away 2,000 CDs during this legendary week of parties and palm-pushing (networking). And we won’t announce the venues until just before the beginning of March. Tickets for each night are $20. That price includes a free CD set (2), and optional membership into our S.I.R. online meetup group!

ABOUT GLOBAL GATHERING 2006…On March 18th and 19th, the world's premiere music festival is coming to Miami. The Global Gathering Festival, one of the hottest music celebrations of the planet, heads to the US, thanks to a partnership between Angel Music Group, Track Entertainment, and Space Miami. (Note: Track Entertainment is the parent company of Clubplanet.com.)
It's the world's third-ever Global Gathering, following on the heels of the two hugely successful European festivals in England and Ireland. These current shows have been produced by AMG over the past five years, setting attendance records in both countries along the way.
The success of 2005’s existing shows has prompted AMG to look for further territories in which to expand the phenomenal Global Gathering concept, which has sold out every previous show. AMG has also been successfully operating the well-known Ice Nightclub in Las Vegas under their other brand moniker; Godskitchen.
So why should you care?
Because this much is certain: expect world-class DJs, blue-chip bands, thousands of half-naked beautiful people, celebrities galore, and a vibe that will rival any concert on the planet.

Dreams Of Ibiza

…both Wednesday to Tuesday * Ibiza, Spain
OVERVIEW…Not just for the rich and famous, the “party island of the world” is now exposed as we travel to experience a week-long adventure unique from any other. Lots of partying with some of the world’s greatest DJs, sightseeing, and…more parties.
ABOUT IBIZA: Party island, resort for the rich, home to the world’s greatest DJs, family fun fest and simply paradise are affectionate titles for an island you won’t find in most travel brochures. Yet, it is far from a secret place no knows exist. Over 3,000,000 visitors during each month of ‘high season’ proves this place is happening. 24/7…a European Vegas with beach front views. The world’s largest nightclub, Manumission, will be open all day and night, and may be packed with thousands worshipping the throbbing club anthems Ibiza is famous for. Away from the clubbing carnage is a laid back, recovery paradise…sunshine, ambient tunes, and the soft swish of breaking waves. There are masseurs who work the beaches, hammocks to doze in, and even yoga to sooth the frazzled mind. Thrill-seekers can rock climb, go snorkeling, play tennis, and much more. There’s other typical vacation perks, such as shopping, sightseeing, exotic eateries & soaring spirits & wines, plenty of language-learning opportunities, and our favorite, the nagging desire to want to move to the place. You won’t find any amusement parks or, to our knowledge, casinos, but the place rocks like every day is the last day on earth. THAT is what we call a vacation!
