Local Recall - Twestival London
Posted on: 7 February 2010 at 1852 - Comment
As we start gearing up for the next Twestival Global London (on March 25th – put it in your diary!), we thought a small reminder of the last Twestival Local London event was in order.
For those who didn’t attend or for those whose recollection of the evening may be hazy (and thanks to generous donations from Barefoot Wine (via @thirstforwine) and Magners, that could be a few of you), Leap Anywhere have handily provided this great video to remind you.
Entertainment on the night was provided by a wide variety of acts, including headliners The Hours and Newton Faulkner, plus many more musical acts, spoken word artists, DJs, and live tweet-storytelling from The Dreaming, who created a tale as the night progressed from tweets and suggestions from party-goers. Activities included making your own crafty-badges with The Make Lounge, face painting, playing the Tweetminster guys on their games consoles, or contributing to the playlist that Sonos created and played as the night progressed.
While everyone had a great time, we also raised lots of money and awareness for ChildLine, the NSPCC helpline for young people in need of guidance and comfort.
There are so many people to thank for their kind volunteering, but a special thank you has to go to:
