Dates for 2012 Show — DOMAINfest Sets

The big show returns, but I bet the final party will have a fresh location.

Mark your calendars, folks.

Next year’s DOMAINfest Global conference will take place January 31 to February 2. The event will again take place at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel in Santa Monica, California.

Registration begins in September for a discounted rate of $995. Rates jump October 1.

If you think you might go, I recommend reserving a hotel room soon as they always sell out early.

DOMAINfest Global’s main show in California is usually the most highly attended domain investor conference with around 700 attendees.

If there’s one thing I’ll place a bet on for this conference, I can pretty much guarantee you it won’t return to the Playboy Mansion this year. I don’t think Hef will invite us back.

Update: I missed this on the DOMAINfest agenda page: “Following three years of Farewell Parties at the Playboy Mansion, DomainSponsor has decided to change things up a bit and host this event at a fresh, exciting, world-famous venue right in the heart of Hollywood. Don’t worry, there will be plenty of high-energy, fun entertainment. And it will once again include a fundraising effort for a good cause. We hope to announce details on this highly anticipated party very soon.”
