If you’ve got a busy holiday to-do list going, make sure you bump this item to the top: secure early bird tickets to the GeekWire Gala! The cut-off to grab a better deal for the annual extravaganza is next week, Saturday, Nov. 30.
The Gala will be held Thursday, Dec. 12, at the Showbox SoDo in Seattle.
Featuring a night of networking, music, dancing, games, karaoke, food, festive cocktails and more, we invite you to make our holiday party your holiday party. For inquiries on group pricing, email [email protected].
If GeekWire Galas of the past are any indication, what partygoers choose to step out in could go in a number of different directions, from high fashion to highly entertaining. We will be crowning a winner in a “Sweetest Winter Fashion Contest.”
In addition to the party atmosphere, GeekWire and Greater Seattle Partners will once again recognize the region’s “Uncommon Thinkers,” the groundbreaking innovators who are changing the way we work, live and play. We’ve profiled two of these individuals so far — Uri Shumlak and Ingrid Swanson Pultz — and we’ll publish profiles of other honorees in the coming weeks.
Showbox SoDo is located at 1700 1st Ave S., not far from T-Mobile Park. The event is 21+ and all attendees must have valid ID to enter.
Big thanks to the GeekWire Gala presenting sponsor, First Tech Federal Credit Union; gold sponsors Greater Seattle Partners and Network of Giving; silver sponsor Delta Air Lines; and supporting sponsors Showbox Presents, Washington State Department of Commerce, and ALLtech.
