Mondo Lounge III - Las Vegas Modernism Weekend
Retro Rat Pack Era Paradise!
Friday through Sunday, October 22-24, 2010, Las Vegas, NV, USA!

WHAT IS IT?
Everything you love in ONE Place and Time: Sophisticated, classy, fun, high-brow, vintage vendors and top notch talent circa 1957-1963. Think of Playboy's Penthouse or or a Blake Edwards movie ala The Party or an awesome party scene from Mad Men.
SHAG (Josh Agle) is our official in-person host for the weekend.
Just look at who else is coming to the party and we're adding more to the line-up.

HOW MUCH IS IT?
Tickets are only $40 for the whole weekend.
http://www.mondolounge.com/tickets.php
Room Rates at our host hotel, THE PALMS, are only $69 for Thursday and Sunday and $139 for Friday/Sat.
http://www.mondolounge.com/lodging.php
And if you're on a tighter budget - you KNOW there are always affordable deals to be found in Vegas!!!

WHERE IS IT?
We are thrilled to announce that Mondo Lounge III will be held at the world famous Palms Hotel in Las Vegas, NV. The Palms has embraced the Mid Century Modern aesthetic since they first opened their doors and we feel our Mondo Lounge guests will feel right at home dressing to the nines over the weekend and having the swankiest time ever. Including hanging out at the Playboy Club and MidMod designed Ghost Bar.
And Java's Bachelor Pad Magazine PinUp Pool Party will be held at the equally glamorous Palms Place Pool!

CAN I VEND OR PARTICIPATE IN THE EVENT?
Yes!
Early Bird Vending Spaces are only $100 for a 10x10 space.
http://www.mondolounge.com/vendors.php
Our entertainment schedule is pretty full, but there is ALWAYS room for one more talented person or group. We offer complimentary 5x5 exhibit space for any act that performs at the event.

944 magazine will be printing a full color glossy program for us. Ad spaces are still available at only $250 for a full 5.5 x 8.5 page!
http://www.mondolounge.com/sponsorship.php

ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW?
This same weekend there are some pretty cool cultural things going on in Vegas, including tours, and design panels, etc.
This IS a dress to impress weekend - so pull out your favorite vintage outfits and go for it.
YOU do not want to be the one who missed out on this fun historic event.

And oh - yah finally ... this is event is being co-produced by Lotta Living and M Modern Gallery and there will also be lots of Tiki Central folks there - so you know there will good, smart, fun, high-quality folks and friends in attendance!!!
