Monday Soiree

The night continues and the party starts here! Take a walk on the wild side and party like a rock star at Hard Rock LIVE. Towering columns and majestic archways of the "Coliseum of Rock 'n' Roll" give the exterior a classic feel, while inside Orlando's premier concert venue the vibe definitely has Hard Rock's contemporary edge and attitude. Hard Rock LIVE is the perfect place to take center stage among the superstars, legends and icons of rock music. We’ll have plenty of food, fun, dancing and great music from a live band. Enjoy this relaxed, casual atmosphere to network with colleagues and friends.
 

President's Reception

Wednesday, July 14
5 – 11 p.m.

AGA’s 59th Annual PDC takes you back to 1959… the days of Doo Wop, the Platters and Sha Na Na. It’s the last PDC party of the decade and the last day of school at Rydell High. So get out your cat eye glasses, saddle shoes, poodle skirts, Pink Ladies and T-birds jackets, cuffed jeans, combs and plenty of hair grease for a fun-filled evening and a sock hoppin’ good time. You’ll be cool baby… real cool.

Enjoy excellent food, groovy cocktails and the opportunity to network with friends. A band will play the hottest ’50’s tunes. If that’s not your bag, we’ll also have plenty of rock, R & B, disco, oldies, country, hip hop and dance music too. Why be a wall flower when you can hand jive the night away with music from your favorite eras?!

Don’t split without stopping by this Grease-inspired carnival. It will be so boss and a swinging good time! Pink hair, white socks, varsity letterman sweaters and other costumes are optional, but encouraged.
