It's that time of year again, time for the battle! And by battle we're referring to the NYC X SWE (NYC vs Sweden) Holiday Ping Pong Tournament. This year its taking place at Streetbird and being co-presented by Streetbird owner / celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson ‪#‎NYCXSWE2016‬ This event is a holiday soirée dressed up as a ping pong tournament. It was born from the collaboration between NYC and our NYC-based Swedish network. We opt to throw a tie-less suit-less holiday party where you are actually meant to loosen up. Years of connections in the nightlife, music and entertainment business make this the must-attend event of the winter year after year. Anything can happen. A night to remember. A soirée full of smiles, toasts, celebrities, and great friends. It’s become a recognizable event by trendsetters and party goers as a welcoming of the holidays. Streetbird 2149 Frederick Douglass Blvd All this fun goes towards raising money and awareness for Mission North! Help us make a difference. Your generous donations help us provide crucial support to local teams. Together we can subsidize expensive participation fees, offer shoes and clothing, gear, and other necessary supplies to children in New York's most underserved communities. http://www.mission-north.org/ We'll be raffling off some great prizes to raise money for Mission North. Here's a list of a few of the raffle items. + Two complimentary 3 month memberships to The Sports Center at Chelsea Piers. + A package of 3 sessions for 2 people at Higher Dose infrared sauna. + A free training session for 2 with personal trainer / MMA fighter Garnett Strother + Gift cards to both Streetbird & Red Rooster. + Gift cards to Spin NYC (Ping Pong Club). + and more...

Have a blast,

It’s on again!

The 3rd annual NYC X SWE Holiday Ping Pong tournament.  For those of you unfamiliar with this event, for the last couple of  years we’ve teamed up with our Swedish partner companies RMH Records, BAM Let’s do this and Art by OKOK to put on a Ping Pong Tournament between our NYC friends, and our Swedish friends who live in NYC.

This year we’ve partnered with Urbanears & Trollbäck + Company to put this on. Urbanears is known for making headphones that fit your everyday life. Trollbäck + Company is the coolest design studio in town and just happens to be Swedish owned. Check out their website and Facebook page.

We’ve also added a great cause to this event thanks to Autistic Love Society.

Many of the participants are recognizable faces in industries such as music, nightlife, restaurant, TV, film, art and fashion.  This originally started of as a silly idea to bring some cool people together in a fun nostalgic competitive event. It’s become a real competition with some participants flying into NYC from Sweden.

Click here to watch video from last year’s event.

After last year’s Swedish victory, NYC is thirst for revenge. The competition is between 8 NYC teams and 8 Swedish teams. Each team is hand selected and comprised of a guy and a girl.

Last year Marcus Samuelsson’s Red Rooster team won the championship for the Swedish team. No matter who you are rooting for though – come enjoy some Sunday evening fun with friends and great music, courtesy of DJ Wonder.

Who knows who you’ll meet under the mistletoe.
