I WILL BE THERE..

A few months ago my friend Linda asked me to check out the Spring Fiesta 2012 video on Youtube because she got her little 5 seconds of fame LOL. Me being me, I did what she asked me to do and I checked out the video and from that day on I decided that I will be attending Spring Fiesta 2013 come sun, rain, tsunami or hurricane I WILL BE THERE!! I told my friends about it and shame because like a lot of people I know, they suffer from FOMO (fear of missing out), we shall be invading Wild Waters on the 21st of September.
 
Okay so for some of you who don't know what Spring Fiesta is, its South Africa's premier dance music festival that takes place at Wild Waters in Boksburg, Gauteng. It is an annual event that's running on its 3rd year this year.
www.facebook.com
 So I followed Spring Fiesta on Twitter  and I liked their Facebook page just so I could get all the necessary information I needed concerning the event. Doing that was probably one of the best things I think I have ever done. Okay..maybe I am being a little too dramatic about it being the best thing I have ever done BUT I don't think I would have all the information I have about the event if I didn't follow them on Twitter and like their Facebook page.  Because twitter is so instant, one could mention spring fiesta and in a few minutes they would either retweet or reply to your tweet. So it make its very convenient when you have questions for them. I love their Facebook page because I get to see pictures of the previous years and I also get to see feedback from people who attended and that alone can be very influential to people like me who have never been to the event.
 
This clearly shows that social media plays a huge role in the marketing of events and every organiser wants their events to be a success. I so can't wait for the 21st of September, ZI ZABE ZIWA STRONG!!
