Hi there Pardot blog readers!

My name is Shannon, and I am head of the Pardot Marketing Department. Not sure what it says that the first time my team lets me blog is when we’re talking about parties, but here it goes!

Dreamforce 2015 will be my ninth Dreamforce, and my sixth Dreamforce as a part of Salesforce. I’ve watched the event get bigger and more amazing every year, and the Dreamforce party scene is no exception.



Let’s be honest, after a long day of sessions, everyone wants a chance to unwind. At Pardot, we have created four jam-packed days for B2B marketers, and each night we cap off the event with a killer party.

Tuesday, 9/15

Party: Perfect Pairings

Location and Time: The Dreamboat, 6-9:00PM

The Dreamboat is the most exclusive Dreamforce party venue out there, and the Pardot team has rented out the presidential suite for our opening reception. Attendees will experience killer views combined with some of the world’s top wines paired with unique cheeses, chocolates, and other delicacies. Plus, every attendee will receive a custom pair of ray-bans!

Party: Shaken not Stirred: License to Sell with the cast of HBO’s Silicon Valley

Location and Time: The Grand Night Club, 8:30PM – 12:00AM

Last year’s Pardot party at Dreamforce had people lined up around the block, so of course the only natural reaction is to go even bigger this year! An open bar, killer DJ, and professional dancers aren’t enough — we’ve also recruited the cast of HBO’s Silicon Valley to share a martini or two (or four…or six) to help us celebrate.

While we’ll have a special room reserved for VIPs (ask your account executive for details) this party is open to everyone. Please RSVP, but remember the event is first-come, first-served — so be sure to arrive early and bring your Full Conference badge! You won’t want to miss this opportunity to get your Facebook profile photo with Richard, Dinesh, and Gilfoyle!

Thursday, 9/17

Party: Play to Win

Location and Time: Gotham Club in AT&T Park, 5:30-8:30PM

At Pardot, we love to play games — so we thought the perfect way to “pre-game” before the annual Dreamforce concert and gala would be at the members-only Gotham Club within AT&T Park. Not only will we have tons of fun games and cocktails to help you get in Foo-Fighters mode, but we’ll be offering exclusive back-stage tours of one of the coolest baseball parks.

Invite only: contact your Pardot Account Executive for details

Of course, there are tons of other parties as well. Our friends over at Apptus have created a master list of everything that’s happening. So check it out and get your RSVPs in, and we’ll see you at Dreamforce! As always, you can learn more about Pardot at Dreamforce, including sessions and more information, on our Dreamforce microsite.

Cheers,

Shannon
