Beyond organizing Hair O' The Dog, Metrospect is well known as a go-to planner and party DJ provider in Philadelphia.

"Hair O' The Dog 2017 was without a doubt our most outstanding and successful endeavor yet," said Buffy Harakidas, Metrospect Events' Marketing Director. "Between the entertainment, gourmet food, attendees, sponsors and support, there are countless people to thank, all of whom were integral in making the night a success."

A video of Hair O' The Dog 2017 can be found here.

The entertainment consisted of a mix of national acts and Philadelphia locals. The Grammy Award winner, Lil Jon headlined, along with support from Vassy, Rozes, Clef and Canberra, DJ Freezie and Mr. Hollywood DJ. Along with the sensational performers, there were top shelf cocktails, gourmet fare provided by Wolfgang Puck and an abundance of attendees, many of whom are high profile personalities.

Spawn in 1995 by Dan Cronin and Robert Molinaro (co-founders of Metrospect Events and Chorus Communications) as a way to raise funds for charity while giving their network of friends, coworkers and family a night of pure fun, Hair O' The Dog has grown into one of Philadelphia's most prominent and highly anticipated events. Voted Best Event in Philly by Philadelphia Nightlife Awards, and also deemed "Philly's Most Glamorous Bash," Hair O' The Dog sells thousands of tickets annually, while staying true to their initial ideology, and donating a portion of proceeds to charity.

A portion of this year's proceeds supported Bianca's Kids, a New Jersey-based charity that grants wishes to underprivileged children across the United States. "We can't say thank you enough to everyone who helped make Hair O' The Dog 2017 by far the best yet. With plans for next year's affair already underway, we have exciting announcements to come starting in the next few months," said Harakidas.

Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/03/2016 -- Metrospect Events, the leading event production company in Philly, and the creator of, and organizer behind, the popular annual Hair O' the Dog affair, is pleased to announce that a portion of this year's Hair O' The Dog proceeds will go to Bianca's Kids. Bianca's Kids is a nonprofit charitable organization that was founded in 2010 to help underprivileged and sick children fulfill their wishes. Hair O' the Dog has been voted the "Best Event in Philly" by Philadelphia Nightlife Awards for the last two years.

Since its inception in 1995, portions of the profits from every Hair O' the Dog have gone to local and national charities. This year's event will take place at the Fillmore concert hall in historic Fishtown, Philadelphia.

"Through all the fun and excitement, it's important not to forget that Hair O' the Dog has always been first and foremost about celebrating, and raising funds and awareness for, the fine charities that our great region supports," said Buffy Harakidas, Metrospect Events' Marketing Director. "With that said, it's an absolute honor to be able to work with, support and rally around Bianca's Kids for the 23rd annual Hair O' The Dog 2017 event."

Cousins Debbie Savigliano and Vanessa Andricola started Bianca's Kids in 2010 after their mutual family member, Bianca Yodice, was struck by a vehicle while she was on her way to work at a daycare center. Rather than continue to mourn her death, the cousins, led by foundation President Debbie Savigliano, set out to celebrate Bianca's life by fulfilling what she had always intended: to help kids in need. Today, they work tirelessly to grant wishes to children who are less fortunate than others, whether they are suffering from chronic diseases, in foster care, living in financial instability or a dealing with a variety of other stressful situations.

Metrospect Events is honored to be able to donate a portion of this year's Hair O' the Dog profits to Bianca's Kids. Visit Metrospect Events' website to read a full write-up about Bianca's Kids and their partnership with Hair O' the Dog.

The venue has become a major player in the Philadelphia music scene, and has quickly become a favorite for national acts to pass through when they hit Philadelphia on tour.

Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/18/2016 -- When the words "South Philadelphia" are uttered, a number of scenes typically come to mind. For some, those images could be of classic Philadelphia row homes, one after another, along a shady tree-lined street off East Passyunk Avenue. For others, it could be memories of taking a stroll down Ninth Street through the Italian Market on a warm spring day. Whatever they are, there is no doubt that South Philadelphia—as distinct as the neighborhood is—draws strong images to the minds of all who have ever wandered through.

And nothing encapsulates the historic neighborhood quite as accurately as the acclaimed annual La Festa Della Repubblica event does. With this year's celebration quickly approaching, its producer, Metrospect Events, the highly sought after event production firm in Philly, is reminding potential sponsors that the signup deadline is nearing.

Over 7,500 eventgoers are expected to turn out for the festival, which is set to take place on Sunday, June fifth. La Festa will be held come rain or shine, and is organized by Metrospect Events and supports the Filitalia Foundation.

La Festa Della Repubblica is a popular Italian holiday commemorating the country's shift from a dictatorship into a republic soon after the fall of the Axis powers in the wake of World War II.

Metrospect Events is urging potential sponsors to get in touch as soon as possible. Interested candidates can learn more and make arrangements with the Philadelphia event production firm by calling 215-922-1862, or by emailing contact@metrospectevents.com.

Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/01/2015 -- Metrospect Events, Philadelphia and Bucks County's premier firm for event planning and marketing, is pleased to announce its most recent success: the grand opening of Amerimar Enterprises' newest Philadelphia tech hub location.

Amerimar Enterprises recently took ownership of one of the east coast's most important buildings: 401 N. Broad Street. Behind its facade lies the most fiber-dense structure between New York and Virginia. It is a mecca for the telecommunications and tech industries because it serves as a center for internet traffic that also offers infrastructure to carriers and other service providers. Amerimar Enterprises has taken on the task of renovating this property in order to bring it up to current industry specs. For their grand opening party, though, Metrospect Events transformed the raw and blank space into an awe-inspiring VIP experience complete with elaborate lighting design, extravagant decor, a 24ft. LED bar, lounge furniture and an eclectic display of hanging lanterns and florals. There was also an outdoor lighting display that included a Hollywood sky tracker and custom lejavascript:void(0)d lights to enhance the signage on the building. In addition, catering was provided by Philadelphia staple, DiBruno Brothers.

The industry has been buzzing for some time now in anticipation for this grand opening because the facility itself has been falling into shambles due to its previous owner's neglect, and a building as important as this one needs to have its care and maintenance minded.

To bring to life the latent excitement that has built up over the last year leading up to this grand opening, Amerimar Enterprises contracted none other than Metrospect Events. As Philadelphia's most prominent event planning and management firm, Metrospect Events was tasked with leading the celebratory festivities Amerimar Enterprises wanted to use to reflect the significance of this most prestigious grand opening.

The spirit of Amerimar Enterprises' newest venture in Philadelphia was captured by Metrospect Events, and that spirit manifested itself in the form of an extravagant party that was attended by some of the city's most prominent socialites. Sightings included Desiree Miller, Director of Economic Development at PECO – An Exelon Company; James Minor, President of Unified Communications for The Judge Group; Michael Gallagher, Partner of The Flynn Company; and, James Wilson, Senior Vice President of Mahobey Realty Group.

Those interested in Metrospect Events' services are encouraged to contact the firm at 215-922-1862. More information is also available on their website.

Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/16/2015 -- Metrospect Event Planning and Management has been nominated for the Philadelphia Nightlife Awards' Best Event of 2015 for their signature Hair O' the Dog (HOD) event. Metrospect is looking for its second consecutive win in the category, having received the prestigious award for their 2014 edition of HOD.

Hair O' the Dog 2015 was an extravagant gala that featured an exclusive VIP "Ibiza" lounge and a "Sin City" inspired ballroom. Guests enjoyed top-shelf libations, gourmet hors d'oeuvres and decedent desserts all night long. Ibiza's entertainment featured scantily clad dancers shimmying to sounds by DJ Monotone. Sin City, the Las-Vegas themed main ballroom, featured a rotating selection of musical acts like the Rockets and DJ Dan Cronin, with Mob Wives star Natalie Guerico debuting her single, "Throttle." In addition, there were Vegas Showgirls, casino tables, LED dancing robots and so much more. But the most exclusive room of them all at HOD 2015 was the Miami Bottle Service Lounge. HOD organizers brought the heat in this room with pulsating beats by DJ Bizz, hula dancers and so much more.

2015's Hair O' The Dog was the event's 21st consecutive installment. HOD is one of the longest running black-tie affairs in the country, and it attracts socialites as well as celebrities and sports personalities.

Hair O' The Dog was conceived in 1995 as a fun way to raise to money for non-profit organizations. HOD continues to help support several non-profits to this day by donating a portion of its proceeds to organizations like Big Brothers, Big Sisters, Project H.O.M.E., and Habitat for Humanity.

Hair O' the Dog 2016 will be held in the heart of Philadelphia at The Crystal Tea Room on Saturday January 16th 2016. Guests will proceed through The Crystal Tea Room's atrium, which is an indoor conservatory, then head to the chandelier-clad ballroom. Food will be provided by Finley Catering, and Metrospect promises the event will be unforgettable.
