Why did you choose Puerto Vallarta ? WHITE PARTY has become more than just a party . It is an institution . After 25 years , it ’ s time we bring the festival outside North
150
America and what better place to do it than in Puerto Vallarta during Latin Fever .
To whom or what do you attribute your success ? When I was first starting out , I worked for Steve Rubell at Studio 54 . While he may not have been the best role model , he knew how to throw great parties and I learned many great lessons I still use today . Two things in particular he told me : “ The one thing you own in life is your name ,” and “ always show up for your own party .”
Does what the White Party has become exceed your wildest expectations ? Is it what you dreamed it would be ? Sometimes I look out over the crowd and think , “ My God , what have I done ?” I always had faith in the event , even during the first three years when I was investing a lot of money just to build the brand . Now , White Party has become an annual tradition for many . I ’ m thankful and proud of that .
WHITE PARTY
It ’ s especially gratifying to see the overall White Party experience evolve in vibrant and sexy ways while maintaining the highest quality standards . We always strive to keep things fresh , such as the whole new approach we are taking with our White Party main event , as well as adding to the fun and excitement of the weekend with daytime events such as our Water Park party .
When you are not throwing parties , what can we find you doing ? Movies , diners with friends and traveling … LOL Seriously , I love to travel and I LOVE Puerto Vallarta !
