Twestival Gothenburg - help raise money for clean water

6 02 2009

Twestival: On thursday the 12th 160+ cities around the world will bring Twitter communities together in an effort to raise money for charity:water. This is a large charity organization that focuses on bringing clean water to the 1.1 billion large portion of the worlds population that don't have access to safe, clean drinking water.

As of today, I'll be helping out to organize the event here in Gothenburg. So take the opportunity to meet new friends in the social media sphere here in Gothenburg and have a glass of wine while we donate money for a good cause.

The event will be held at Soho (http://www.sohogothenburg.com) and start at 7pm. You can buy tickets at http://www.amiando.com/twestivalgothenburg.html

Soho is sponsoring the event by providing a place for us to meet and all ticket revenue will go directly to charity:water.

If you don't want to buy tickets now but are planning to attend, you will be able to buy tickets at the door. But please send me a message either here of dm me on twitter (http://twitter.com/andefred) . Apparently you actually have to buy tickets before the event. See the comment below.

I was at the first ever Twestival last fall in London and it was an awesome event. I'm really looking forward to this one, and I hope all of you are too.
