Evening events
Wednesday Opening Reception
On Wednesday, 19. October, 2011 the event will be officially opened with a cocktail reception. Joachim Ritter, editor in chief of the PLD magazine and Chair of the PLDC Steering Committee will address and welcome all attendees. Representatives from PLDA and APDI, as well as from the Platinum Sponsors will co-host the evening. The opening reception offers a platform for communication and for sharing first thoughts about the pre-convention meetings that occurred during the day.
The opening reception is open to all conference ticket holders.
Thursday evening event: City Lights 2.0
Darkness – the stage for a Lighting Designer’s work.
That said, increasingly more professional lighting designers are demanding we apply less light and bring back the night and the natural dark hours of the day!
A contradiction? Or simply an appeal for the right light? And who decides?

Friday - 'free' evening
It is already a tradition that the Friday evening during PLDC is free for the individual participants to spend as they wish. You may like to join one of the events organised by the sponsoring manufacturers’ or co-ordinate your evening with friends and business partners.
Saturday Gala Dinner
PLDC concludes with a Gala Dinner on Saturday, 22. October, 2011.
The seated dinner provides a framework for networking with colleagues and business partners in a relaxed and very special atmosphere.
The main focus of the evening is the Professional Lighting Design Recognition Awards ceremony.
The PLDR Award recognises those individuals, practices, institutions or industry partners who have contributed most in their work, actions and deeds to the advancement of Architectural Lighting Design as a recognized profession.
Celebration of Light Party
Following the Gala Dinner and Awards Show, the evening will finish with a PLDC 2011 Party, offering all lighting enthusiasts the opportunity to celebrate light on the dance floor!
All Gala Dinner participants will have an entrance pass to the PLDC 2011 Party.
