Mercedes-Benz hosted a DJ set with Dirty Vegas and Chromeo. EDM fans were invited to register for an exclusive, free performance by these big names for those lucky enough to snag a ticket to celebrate the launch of the all-new 2013 Mercedes-Benz B-Class.

Dirty Vegas started the night with some deep trance most notably Gotye’s Somebody That I Used to Know and also their big Grammy Award hit “Days Go By”.

The Chromeo duo kept the crowd going with hits like Bonafied Lovin’ from their album, Fancy Footwork.

Guests got to take photos at the Photostar booth, grab candy bracelets and sweets from the candy table and a graffiti BScene wall for anyone to make their mark. The crowd went wild when the promo girls threw glowsticks and glasses made from glowsticks into the crowd. It was a hit with the crowd! It was great that the Mercedes-Benz branding and cars were there, making for glitzy props on the stage, but not intrusive (aka no speeches or preaching). It was a great night had by all!

Glen Baxter with Diesel Canada president, Joey Adler

We were lucky to be invited to the media preview of the new Diesel Yorkdale store as part of the exciting Yorkdale expansion grand opening last week.

“We are excited to be opening the doors of a third Diesel retail location in Canada!”, said Joey Adler, President of Diesel Canada. “Our new Yorkdale retail store is the first and only Canadian location within a shopping mall and marks our continued growth across the country. This day marks a milestone for the Diesel brand in Canada and we look forward to celebrating it with our loyal fans and customers.”

As part of the opening, a contest was held where four fashion bloggers were invited to style mannequins with pieces from Diesel’s SS13 collection. They included Julio (Fashionights), Nelia (Style Blog), Sharon (The Backseat Stylers) and Jay Strut. Visitors to the store voted by tweeting their favourite styled mannequin for a chance to win a Diesel gift card.

Fans went wild for Kardinal Offishall!

It was a concert extravaganza featuring great performances by Kreesha Turner, Mia Martina, Kardinal Offishall and multiple Juno Award winner K’naan following the awards ceremony at the Telus Players Party!  Great moments included when Kardinal Offishal went up to the front row and got up close and personal with fans in the middle of his performance.  The crowd also went wild when the Toronto Argos Cheerleaders surprised us and danced on the stage.  What a great way to celebrate 100 years of the Grey Cup!
