New Mardi Gras teams with Aztech Events for Sleaze 2005

New Mardi Gras continues to deliver world-class events for the GLTBQ community by this week announcing Aztech Events as party producer for Sydney's kinkiest dance event - Sleaze  2005 'Sinsuality'.

Aztech Events brings to Sydney's gay scene more than ten years experience in event production and is backed by experienced NIDA graduates Grant Pisani and Darren Waide. One of Sydney's leading lighting designers, Brad Wright joins Aztech Events to produce exclusively NMG parties.

Marcus Bouget, New Mardi Gras Chair welcomes the Aztech Events team to Australia's largest GLTBQ organisation and tell Sydney to expect the unexpected this Sleaze.

"It's been three years of tremendous change for New Mardi Gras, which has delivered great results for all our events," said Marcus. "I am pleased to announce that the young, fresh and dynamic Aztech Events team will deliver a Sleaze that queer Sydney has come to expect."

To be held Saturday, 1 October 'Sinsuality', is one of the biggest fundraisers for the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras season. The theme borrows from the seven deadly sins, with New Mardi Gras releasing one deadly sin each week, which will no doubt encourage Sinsual behaviour on party night.

The boys have also been responsible for a number of large corporate events for Fuji Xerox, UBS and Optus.

Brad Wright shares the excitement of Marcus an says, "We are very honoured to be plying a major part in the next New Mardi Gras party and look forward to delivering a kick-ass, quality product for the community."

"The key to a successful Sydney event is to really understand the market, to ask questions and to listen to what people have t say. I believe that Aztech Events has these skills and can push the envelope in order to give our audience some new experiences," says Wright.
