After a long day of inspirational keynotes, informative sessions, and hands-on training at Dreamforce, you may feel tempted to go back to your hotel and curl up in your bed. But every night of Dreamforce boasts an impressive roster of parties — an exciting opportunity to explore San Francisco and network with your peers. Whether you're looking for a blowout bash, a quiet happy hour, a concert, or just some cocktails and nibbles, there's something for everyone. Browse the full list with Apttus's Dreamforce 2017 party calendar or download the Partyforce app by DoubleDutch.
Not sure where to get started? We'll give you some tips and pick some of our favorite parties below.
1. RSVP
Check to see if your party of choice has an RSVP option. If it does, you'll save yourself the hassle of registering at the door (or worse, being turned away due to the space reaching capacity).
2. Get there early
Dreamforce party veterans recommend arriving early to your highest-priority party. You'll have a much easier time getting a drink, finding a seat, and securing a snack if you don't wait until the place is packed (and trust us — most of the parties will be packed). Many parties will offer appetizers, so if you have a party you're really sold on, head there early and grab dinner afterwards.
3. Meet some new people
It's easy for the time to pass by if you're at a party with the people you work with every day. But Dreamforce brings innovative professionals together from all around the world. We guarantee that you will meet interesting folks with whom you share a lot in common — if you go out on a limb and say hi. So try to meet at least a few new people at each party you attend.
