DC Metro FCP UG

AJA invites you to our 2010 NAB VIP party for an evening of cocktails, food, music and entertainment.

This year we’re taking over one of the newest and hottest clubs in Las Vegas, HAZE nightclub at the Aria hotel.

HAZE offers a colossal cutting-edge environment that challenges your sense of perception and reality. The plush interior and superior service coupled with the latest in lighting technology and a one-of-a-kind sound system provide the premier Las Vegas nightlife experience, making sure this year’s AJA party will be another night to remember. And following his hit performance at last year’s party, special guest DJ, Dan Saenz of JETSET Music, will be lighting up the dance floor once again.

Don’t miss out on the hottest party at NAB – secure your ticket by April 6th.

This has been a very successful year so far for the DCFCPUG.  I hope to see more of the membership take advantage of the learning opportunities and networking connections that you gain from the added exposure to the entertainment industry!
