Fans and followers invited to end-of-summer Tweetup to tweet about the hotel’s renovated pool bar & grill area and preview new mobile site
Social media influencers can count on being tweeted to a good time on Wednesday, August 31 when Hilton Anaheim, Orange County’s largest hotel and its premier convention and leisure destination, hosts its first-ever high-tech Tweetup event, featuring prize giveaways, Twitter-themed food and beverages, complimentary massages, and more.
The hotel will be encouraging these guests to use their accounts with Twitter, the online social networking and microblogging service, to share up to 140 character-long online posts about their first-hand experience at the hotel with their many friends and followers. To do so, they can use the hashtag, #HATweetup. The event is scheduled from 6 until 9 pm.
“More and more, travelers are using the Internet and social media to learn about and to share information on vacation destinations, things to do, hotels, restaurants and more,” said Shaun Robinson, General Manager, Hilton Anaheim. “Tweeters, bloggers and other social media users can be very influential and we want to be part of the online conversation.”
The event will take place in the hotel’s outdoor pool area where more than one million dollars was spent in renovations, including adding a giant water bucket, a poolside lounge and grilling station, and more. The hotel completed a $60 million renovation in 2009.
Attendees will also receive an exclusive sneak-peak of the hotel's brand-new mobile site providing detailed information on dining, meeting space, area attractions and other information.

A red carpet entrance with Twitterazzi snapping photos
Complimentary five-minute massages courtesy of the Health Club at Hilton Anaheim
Complimentary Twitter-themed food fare
Twitter-themed cocktails like Margatweetas, Motweetos and Twequila Sunrises for purchase
