Announcing the Sitepoint closing party for Web Directions

Last year, our impromptu clos­ing night drinks at the Pumphouse Hotel Darling Harbour [1] was a great suc­cess. Tired but elated after three days of work­shops and the con­fer­ence, hav­ing packed up and left the venue, I walked down to the pub expect­ing to see a few peo­ple hav­ing a good time, and found a cou­ple of hun­dred hav­ing a great time.

This year, Sitepoint have quite lit­er­ally come to the party, mak­ing it an offi­cial clos­ing night event. There’ll be drinks tokens you can win through­out the con­fer­ence, and for every­one who comes to the party, as well as fin­ger food, and DJs Cam “the man in blue” Adams, and Lucas from Sitepoint (you can catch him in Melbourne at the leg­endary Black Cat Cafe on Brunswick street from time to time).

So, if you are com­ing from out of town, get a late flight home, or even bet­ter stay another night, to get the chance to get to know oth­ers at the con­fer­ence even better.

And a huge thank you to Sitepoint for all their sup­port, and in this case mak­ing Web Directions even better.

[1]So named because it used to be the pump­house for Sydney’s water based hydraulic sys­tem, which pow­ered lifts and other heavy machine before electricity.
