Organise your own vBeers EventNo vBeers event in your area?

We often get people asking us what do they need to hold a vBeers. They are pretty surprised when we give them answer.

Below is all you need to hold a vBeers in your town/city.

  • Yourself and a friend (drinking on your own & talking to yourself can be dull)
  • A pub/bar that sells good beer, soft drinks and tasty snacks.

That’s it. Seriously, that’s it. vBeers isn’t like other events which require organizing. It’s all about meeting others, sharing a beer and talking virtualization(and often other technologies).

Other vBeers tips we recommend you should consider:

  • Make sure the pub/bar is in a good central location, close to good transport links. This will allow people from other areas to join you for a vBeer.
  • If you plan on making your vBeers a regular event, try and make it the same time, week/month/bi-monthly etc And the same place so people will find it easier to remember.
  • Ask for an account on vBeers.org, so you can advertise your vBeers to help other people find your events. You events will also be tweeted by out @vBeers_org twitter account.
  • Take photos at your vBeers and ask myself or Simon to upload them to vBeers.org so others can see what they are missing out on.
  • vBeers are intended as being vendor free zones and as such shouldn’t be used by vendors to promote their products and talk FUD to the attendees.  It’s about like-minded individuals meeting in a relaxed social environment to talk about virtualization and tech.  Vendor employees of course can attend though just leave yFUD Freeour sales and marketing hats at the door.  Smile

Why not arrange your very own regular or one off vBeers event with like minded vGeeks? To do so couldn’t be easier, just drop us a line with the details including the date, time and location and we’ll get them added to the site where others will see what you’ve arranged.  It will also be promoted to the masses via Twitter.

 

There are two easy ways to get your vBeers up on the vBeers.org site.
