Warm up your vocal cords and get ready to sing the night away! If you’ve never tried karaoke before, here is your chance. We’ll have a live DJ with a playlist of songs from both the latest hits and older classics. And when you are not crooning, check out the 360 Photo Booth. It is a fun rotating platform that captures slow motion video in real time. Don’t worry — we will show you how to capture your best keepsake for sharing or just remembering this “don’t miss” event. It’s as easy as standing on the platform while the camera arm rotates slowly creating a dramatic effect. This experience is a hot trend at the Grammys and A-list celebrity parties! Now YOU can be the star.
