About this event
We are an Open-Source Party Movement on a mission to unite the world in celebration and win the Nobel Peace Prize for Partying.
HOW A DECENTRALIZED DANCE PARTY (DDP) WORKS:
You carry a boombox and the DJ has an FM radio transmitter. Hundreds of boomboxes are tuned into the DJ’s master FM broadcast, resulting in a mobile, synchronized sound system!
This Open-Source Party roams the night, generating complete awesomeness, street by street and block by block, onto buses and subways, into public fountains and beyond. Together, we create an infectious epidemic of fun. A roaming Party adventure that lasts all night long!
On the dance floor, it's easy to approach each other with Pure Hearts and Positive Intentions. We seek to create spaces free of politics, division and struggle. Sacred moments in space and time to be One people on One planet. From there, we can do anything!
Since 2009, we’ve hosted over 100 DDPs worldwide and our Capital-P Party Philosophy has inspired many more to spring up independently. Check out our website to learn more about the Party Revolution! TheDDP.com
THE THEME:
This will be the first-ever Mobile House Party. Couches, ironing boards, vacuum cleaners, fridges, chandeliers, Bring It ALL! We are going to get as many household appliances and items possible on wheels and Partying across the city. It will also be a 1980s house Party, so dress to THRILL. Inspirational videos coming soon!

ALL-AGES!
DDPs are hosted exclusively in public spaces and we take great pride in creating the most inclusive Parties possible. EVERYONE, of every AGE, BACKGROUND and STYLE is 100% welcome and will be accepted with open arms and high-fives.
People show up to DDPs with their kids and parents all the time. Homeless people join in wherever we go. Even the police participate sometimes. It’s all good. The more diversity the better.
In a time when much of the world is polarized and divided, “Capital-P Partying” represents a rare Common Goal that can instantly unite everyone it encounters.
Music is the Universal Human Language, dancing is the Universal Human Movement, and Partying is the Universal Human Identity!

Meet at 8PM SHARP on the Lion Stairs at the Vancouver Art Gallery

ALCOHOL:

RESPECT:
When we are Partying, be respectful of people and property and please don’t litter. We have worked hard to build a good name for ourselves and the DDP.
And we’ve also maintained a good rapport with police forces around the world and because of this they have always helped us out and allowed everyone to have a good time. It is essential that we maintain these things if we want to continue to do these Parties. SPREAD THE WORD.
THE ELITE BANANA TASK FORCE!
We’re recruiting 10 Alpha Partiers to round out our Elite Banana Task Force. All 10 will be equipped with banana suits in order to help us prepare the boomboxes, facilitate the madness and other Elite Party Tasks. Want in? Send a non-traditional resume: http://bit.ly/fn1TWs
