The Lowdown:

• NetParty & Match.com partner for a mega networking + social event either on the (heated & tented) sprawling patio of the 1940s-themed Hughes Hanger or in its funky indoors area.

• Great drink specials (6-8 pm) including $3 beers and $5 mixed drinks

• 200+ Expected

For one night only, NetParty is partnering with Match.com's Stir Events (http://www.match.com/) for a mega NetParty Networking Salon & Social at Hughes Hangar (http://www.hugheshangar.com/), the "electrifying" 1940's-themed speakeasy lounge with the "alluring ambiance" (Houston Chronicle) located next door to the final resting place of the eccentric billionaire and aviator, Howard Hughes.

This is an evening offering unparalleled business networking opportunities and an amazing opportunity to make social connections with hundreds of Houston young professionals.

Inspired by the prestigious 17th century Parisian Salons as "gathering for the exchange of ideas", our NetParty Networking Salons & Socials are held at the most "stylish" venues in the country and are "designed to combine business networking with social fun" (Forbes).

Match.com local Stir events range from large-scale happy hours to more intimate events, such as cooking classes, wine and tequila tastings, dance lessons, bowling nights, rock-climbing and more.

We're inviting our members and Match.com is inviting theirs! Here's what you can expect:

The NetParty Business Networking Salon (6-8 pm)

• Low music, high spirits, and the perfect environment to enjoy stimulating conversation and make new connections.

• Exclusive use of the back patio, Hughes Hangar's main draw - it's over 3,0000 square feet, tented and heated for this event, and a great place to relax, mix and mingle with like-minded professionals.

• Great drink specials (6-8 pm) including:

• $3 Domestic Beer

• $4 Import Beer

• $5 Well Liquors

• $7 Call Liquors

• Name badges color-coded by industry (http://www.netparty.com/images/location/netparty_vertical.jpg) to make it super-easy, comfortable and fun to approach friendly NetParty and Match.com members.

The NetParty Social (8-10pm+)

• A chance to unwind and socialize with great music, a DJ and a fun atmosphere

• Don't worry! We'll never make the music too loud for you to talk

• Stay all night event after our NetParty event officially ends at 10 pm, to enjoy all Hughes Hangar has to offer including black-and-white movies playing on the projector screen on the back patio.

"A fantastic display of sophistication, masculinity and class" (Houston Press), Hughes Hangar returns guests to a bygone era where lounging was once considered an art. Its vintage chandeliers, brick-accent walls, tufted leather couches and unique relics combine to create the unique speakeasy atmosphere that Hughes himself might even have enjoyed. Perhaps that's why, on weekends, "getting by the doorman can be a challenge." (Zagat)

This is a unique opportunity to network with like-minded professionals and meet great people, so don’t miss it!
