Twestival Home

So here we go all…let’s make this official, and get this party started.   Twestival – a tweetup supporting a great cause.  Not only an opportunity for the Vienna Twitter community to meet up in person, but make a difference at the same time!  What’s not to love?

My name is Dan Taylor, but a lot of you already know me as @MountainDan. Upon learning of Twestival, I immediately noticed that Vienna was not being represented, and decided to do something about it. With that said, I’ll be the first to admit: my German language skills are a bit lacking.  But fear not, Ich kann fast alles verstehen, it’s just my response in German that gets a bit tricky.

Over the past few days, I’ve gotten a few hot leads on some locations that might be suitable for the event (hat tip @smartula), but am actively looking for suggestions.  Remember, an ideal location should be able to provide us with wifi access, a projector (or two, or three) to broadcast twestival events, a decent, but not overpowering soundsystem, and most importantly: liquid refreshment.

I work with a Viennese company, fatfoogoo.com, and they’ve already promised some support, either financial and/or prize/raffle options, and we’ll also be working with Mirjam (@miadonna) from groops.at.

If you’re interested in sponsoring the event (or know companies that are), or helping out in any way please send me a direct message @MountainDan and/or twestivalwien@gmail.com.

More updates to come…stay tuned!
