Yelp’s 4th Annual Holiday Party – PLEY!

The SF Bay Area’s 4th Annual Yelp Holiday Party went down at the Exploratorium in San Francisco on December 3rd. Isn’t it fun to be a kid again?

It was a blast to see yelpers PLEYing with all of the amazing exhibits, toasting cocktails and Firestone Beer, getting down on the dance floor with DJ Notoriuous R.U.G, ping-ponging it with Russell S(anta), posing in the Twister photo booth, playing Rockband in the theatre and getting their faces painted by Robyn Jean. Jesse Freidin and Orange Photography captured it all. Check out the party photos!

A resounding WOOT to the local entertainers who commanded the stage throughout the night: The Frail rocked it with a dreamy electro pop set, Cheer SF rallied the crowd with some crazy stunts, the SFC Double Dutch girls turned the ropes like pros, HoopGirl worked those hips and SoulForce shook some serious booty.

The Bay Area Roller Derby Girls were hot on skates, passing out goodies from Chocolatier Blue. A big thanks to all of our food sponsors, Baraka, Bissap Baobob, Cheese Plus, Cups and Cakes Bakery, Destino, Donsuemor Madeleines, Icebee, Inticing Creations, Joey and Eddie’s, The Lobster Shack, Pacific Catch, Pisco Latin Lounge, Poleng Lounge, Prana, Red Crane, Samovar Tea Lounge and Sugar Bowl Bakery, for the delectable bites throughout the night.

Relaxing moments were enjoyed in the chic Room and Board lounge, draped with beautiful flowers and languorous yelpers. And as far as the pleyful entryway decoration, Seti Design provided the flower arrangements, while Brian from Balloons Equal Fun was the masterful genius behind the unreal 3D balloon portraits and personalized balloons.

At the end, people were able to take advantage of Zipcar‘s designated driver rides home. If you’re not already a member, be sure to check out their coupons for $50 worth of free driving in your gift bag. Other fine items in the gift bag were donated by Gama Go, Tru Spa, YBCA, Blind Bunney Couture, Storeroom, Hlaska, Isotope, Glass Dildo Me, Burton, Pacific Catch, Smooth SF and Shotwell.

Good times!
