If you’re a MMS newbie and want to know which parties to attend at MMS, listen up. Or if you’re a seasoned MMS veteran, you know what I’m about to say.
There are 3 parties that are must-attend events at MMS. Each party has its own flair, but fit well in the mix to round out your MMS experience.
- The myITforum.com party on Tuesday night. All you have to do is beat the mad rush to the myITforum.com booth (#235) as the Expo opens on Monday night to get a special party pass. Some of you have passes held back for you (you know who you are). Just so you know how large the myITforum.com party is, most groups hold parties in a restaurant or something small. myITforum.com’s party is always in a large area or large room. This year’s party is in a large ballroom and we’re expecting around 500 people.
- The 1E party, Wednesay night. To get this party pass, you need to sidle-up with a 1E employee, either at the 1E booth (#311) in the Expo, or in the hallways somewhere. Your best bet is to find Ed Aldrich and tell him you love his red purse.
- The MMS closing party. This is for everyone and your party pass (usually a bracelet) will be inside your MMS bag that you receive at conference check-in (different than hotel check-in). Microsoft gives out awesome laptop bags each year and inside you’ll find a number of things like advertisements, maps, guides, etc. Don’t forget to locate your MMS closing party pass right away and ask the folks at the registration booth for one if yours is missing. Oh — and don’t forget to find the myITforum.com advertisement in the MMS guide this year!
