As you know Amsterdam Twestival is about bringing the twitter community together, to not only raise funds for good causes but network with like-minded people and experience homegrown media, technology and music talent in one evening that’s sure to be, one hell of a party!
We are pleased to see the return of Ancilla Tilla (Wakker Dier’s Ambassador and FHM columnist) as our MC for the evening whilst we welcome a new technology sponsor to Amsterdam Twestival; Sonos who will operate a Multi-Room Music System which besides doing funky techi stuff, will live stream online and on radio from the Odeon’s basement lounge.
In addition, we are fortunate to have a number of Dutch and International DJs and artists providing music for all tastes, whom have all volunteered time out from their busy agendas to get behind the Tweet-Meet-Give message. Many of the acts will be performing sets throughout the night exclusively for Amsterdam Twestival party-goers. Don’t miss out, buy your ticket online to experience this exciting charity evening at the Odeon:
