Marhaba, Damascus Tweeps! Finally Twestival is coming to Damascus for the first time.
Twestival is a global event happening in all the 5 continents simultaneously on 24th March.
Damascus will celebrate together with many other cities on the same day in a nice gathering which is going to be hosted in the stunning framework of the Danish Institute, one of the most beautiful houses of Old Damascus.
Twestival is a cozy gathering of people who tweet and like to network, make new friends, enjoy discovering new worlds and interests.
Syrian people are social by definition. And, in order to celebrate this, we want to dedicate this Twestival to something which is social by definition: "sharing". Every day, during your daily life, you share something: you share food, thoughts, doubts, ideas, time with other people.
Twestival Damascus invites all Syrian tweeps (and also people who are not on Twitter yet but want to get started) to "sharing" something on 24th March.
This can be a song which has meant something special to you; a picture of your friends; your favorite T-shirt; a video you`ve made; a delicious dish you have cooked, whatever!
There is no limit to fantasy but please come and share with us something. "Sharing" is important and has got a special place in Syrian culture.
Please come and celebrate the culture of "sharing" on the 24th March at the Danish Institute in Damascus.
We`ll be posting more info during next days, but please send us your feedback at @TwestivalDamas or joining our Facebook group.
