Cali’s Best Parties

BY Dorien van Veen, Switzerland

Flashing colored lights, moving light beams, laser lightshows, strobe lights, mirror-covered disco balls, or foam, and smoke machines in combination with music repeated by good DJ’s and a lot of excited people dancing on big dance floors. Where can you find the best parties in California?

Let’s talk about what makes a party an unforgettable event. In my opinion it’s all about  good music, variety, the guests with the fun party atmosphere, enough space to dance, but also the possibility to sit down and rest or just talk. A really good party has to have something special, but shouldn’t be too expensive. However, the party folks like some kind of luxurious touches.

I mentioned that variety is an important point to make a party worth going to. There are some different types of parties in California. I’d like to present the three most exciting:

How can a party be more mobile than inside a driving party van? San Francisco and San Diego provide such parties taking place inside of a huge and luxurious limo bus. 10, up to 55, persons can celebrate their personal party inside. You can also ask for a party-tour and the bus will stop at some clubs or beaches for you to go out and join the best celebrations. And I have to say that it’s really affordable.

Party bus rates will vary based on the following factors:

• Vehicle size: 20, 30, 40, 45 or 57 passenger party buses.
• Day of the week: Sunday – Thursday rates; Friday / Saturday rates.
• Time of the day: Is your event during the day or at night?
• Location: How many miles will you travel to your pickup location and what is your itinerary?
• Type of event: Are you planning a bachelor party, wedding, concert or festival, Napa wine tour or San Francisco nightclub tour?

   Hit the Dance floor (http://clubzone.com/california/places/nightclubs/)

   The best nightclub I‘ve ever been to is the OHM in Hollywood.

   This club in the heart of Hollywood right at the Hollywood Boulevard and the well-known walk of fame has a huge dance floor, two stages, a very comfortable lounge area and enough space for smokers and people who just want to talk to each other or cool down. Two bars inside and one outside make it possible for you to refresh yourself with a cold drink. You even have the possibility to smoke a hookah outside (which is pretty expensive for $60). And the view is priceless and breathtaking.
