I’m pleased to be working with Ham Rambler of the esteemed Dublin sim to be hosting this year’s Irish Blog Awards in Second Life. The event will be run in-game concurrently with the real life event this weekend on Saturday, 3 March at 11 am game time, 7 PM Irish time.
The event will be simulcast to the real life awards night in Dublin, and winners will be announced in-game as events unfold. Our Second Life guests will also have the chance to represent real-life award winners and accept an Irish Blog Award on our red-carpet podium, which should make the most bizarre SL party favour ever given out.
The evening will feature live music from Irish band Callahan, plus contemporary Irish rock and dancing all night. There will also be an Irish-themed pub quiz with prizes, copious amounts of alcohol and food, and fantastic gift bags for all attendees. We’ll also be awarding cash prizes to the best costumed attendees, so while you can come in boring black tie and ballgowns, we enourage you to get creative and wow your fellow guests!
It is going to be a great evening so if you’re Irish, looking for a Euro-timed event or just want an excuse to break out your costumes, ballgowns and tuxes and come along to a fun themed event, please register for tickets now. You must join the group Irish Blog Awards 2007 to attend, and joining costs $150L - basically, that’s the ticket price. Access to the event will be limited to group members only, so please be sure to join and stay joined until the event is over!
