The corporate client rented out the entire Quest Nightclub in downtown Minneapolis for a lavish "futuristic" party for their customers who were in town for a pharmaceutical convention. More than 300 guests entered the venue through a "time warp tunnel". A future world theme was created throughout the space through elaborate décor, costumed performers and roaming robots.

Entertainment Details
The layout of the space afforded two distinct entertainment experiences. In the Garden Room, a big band performed, with space for dancing. On the main level dance floor, a futuristically adorned entertainment troupe performed a musical and theatrical show. Performers were suspended above the dance floor, and smoke and flowing sheers enhanced the otherworldly effect.
