HoHoTo - the essential Toronto holiday hooley

UPDATE: new date (scheduling SNAFU with the venue). Party now on Monday December 15th, 2008.

This is likely to be popping up an a lot of radars in the next couple of days as the word gets out...

Shaping up to be the essential GTA geek gathering of the 2008 Holiday Season, HoHoTo is being pulled together by a group of volunteers and willing helpers (including yours truly) via Twitter and email accounts.

The party kicks off at 7pm, Monday December 15th at The Mod Club in downtown Toronto. Tickets are $10 and all proceeds, net of event costs, will go to the Toronto Daily Bread Food Bank.

Who's this party for? From the invitation put together by Rob Hyndman (one of the guys behind mesh):
It's for geeks, phreaks, webheads, twitterfiends, techies,
media, marketing, and PR types and all their friends. And
everyone else! DJ's, interactive media, and loads of holiday
cheer, all for a great cause!

The tickets are on sale now at the HoHoTo event page, where you can also contribute directly to the Food Bank, if you're not able to attend the party on the 15th.

If you have any interest at all in the Toronto tech/web/marketing/social media world, and want the chance to hang out with around 300 like-minded individuals, you owe it to yourself not to miss this one.
