80s Conference & Convention After-Parties in San Francisco
After downtown sessions, an Embarcadero room gives visiting delegates a waterfront change of scene and a reason to stay together. An 80s after-party gives attendees a networking structure that does not feel like networking: arcade lines, trivia teams and a mic everyone eventually grabs. We size it for San Francisco convention crowds.
How It Works for Conference & Convention After-Parties
Big arcade, short lines
A high-score tournament gives sponsors a branded moment, and branded tokens make a natural booth giveaway. We size cabinets for the Peninsula and downtown crowds alike.
Fast load-in, faster strike
Convention schedules leave little room, so we plan around SoMa loading reservations and waterfront equipment shelter and keep the strike quick. The host keeps the night moving and announces sponsor moments.
Live band karaoke
Nothing breaks the ice between attendees like a stranger nailing a power ballad with a real band. In San Francisco we stage band karaoke right on the floor, no stage fright needed. We plan it the same way for hosts out in South San Francisco.
Lasers, haze and an LED marquee
We turn a general session room into a neon club with lighting alone. Our producer coordinates with in-house AV in the Mission District on power and timing.
Retro Prom Gala — starting at $10,500
Convention crowds need the full production: live band plus DJ (band karaoke included), a full arcade, roller performers and neon décor for 200+ attendees in SoMa or the Peninsula.
Suggested add-ons
- Extra arcade games
- Custom neon sign
- Silent disco
Frequently asked questions
Can you work within venue exclusive-vendor rules?
Yes. We work with in-house AV and event services across San Francisco, provide certificates of insurance and plan for SoMa loading reservations and waterfront equipment shelter.
How large a group can you handle?
From 150 to well over 1,000. We add arcade clusters and a second stage area for bigger San Francisco conventions. It is a format SoMa product teams and Peninsula technology colleagues keep asking for.
Can sponsors brand parts of the party?
Yes. Sponsors can brand the LED marquee, game tokens and the leaderboard. It is a popular package for SoMa product teams and Peninsula technology colleagues.
How quickly can you set up between sessions?
It depends on the space, but our compact rigs come together fast. In South San Francisco we have turned rooms between afternoon sessions and evening doors.
