Networking Party

July 26, 2011 by

Are you packing dancing shoes? There’s no place to make contacts like the POWER-GEN Int’l 2011 Offsite Networking Party, located at the infamous  Tryst Nightclub in the Wynn Hotel.

Tryst was originally opened as a restaurant when the Wynn Hotel launched in 2005 . The restaurant closed and reopened as the newest creation from Victor Drais from the infamous Drais Nightclub.  Tryst offers club goers the best overall nightclub experience in Las Vegas.

The Decor, ambiance and setting just can’t be beat with the Jewel being a 50ft. waterfall and lake located directly inside of the club. The best quality of TrYst is that there really isn’t a bad seat in the club it has been designed to accommodate everybody which is why it remains such a success in Vegas.

The LA Times calls it “the best-kept non-secret in local night life.” For networking with colleagues or celebrity sightings, don’t miss this event. http://www.power-gen.com
