The Venue
- 1015 FOLSOM http://1015.com/ – The perfect venue for this full-on event. Deep down inside its heart, 1015 Folsom knows what it is. The swanky interior design, the sprawling interior, the long list of incredible, not-quite-mainstream superstars, the casual dress code, the unpretentiousness…1015 is what dance clubs were before money, fame, and the see-and-be-seen scene became the main reason to go out.
- Massive by San Francisco standards, 1015 is spread out over three floors and 20,000 square feet. The Tea Dance will take place in two dance rooms, with different DJs and Music. This is the ultimate after-party!
- The Hotel Zetta offers Free WiFi, an iPod docking station, a portable wireless Bluetooth speaker, & double-panned windows for quiet & privacy. It is also one of the best locations in the city, with easy access to all the major tourist sights and a short tram ride to the gay bars.
