In May over 2,000 people across Northern Ireland witnessed the best of Argentinean nightlife come alive at Kellys Portrush as part of the region\u2019s first Smirnoff Nightlife Exchange experience.\u00a0 Revellers across Northern Ireland and the world are being invited to co-create and participate in the latest Smirnoff Nightlife Exchange Project by contributing ideas on what makes their local nightlife distinct in the categories of drinks, dance, fashion, music, places, and more, creating a nightlife cocktail of unique events. The most inspiring suggestions from each region will be captured online and then exchanged with another country in November. By participating online, fans will have the chance to win a place at one of the global events or experience another country\u2019s party at a Smirnoff Nightlife Exchange Project event in their own city. Go to www.facebook.com\/smirnoffireland<\/a><\/strong> to find out more.<\/p>\n

One of the consistent aspects in nightlife culture around the world is the importance of dance. As well as submitting ideas on what makes their country\u2019s nightlife special, fans can enter an exclusive dance competition online. Madonna will attend one of the selected Smirnoff Nightlife Exchange Project experiences where finalists will compete in front of her for the winning spot. The winner may get the opportunity to join Madonna on her next tour as one of her dancers.<\/p>\n

“What attracted me to the Smirnoff Nightlife Exchange Project is the combination of participating in the celebration of nightlife around the world and the opportunity to discover the world’s best unknown dancers,” said Madonna. “The best dancers are always in the clubs looking for the most original experience, just like Smirnoff is doing.”<\/p>\n

The Smirnoff Nightlife Exchange Project strives to showcase, mix and unite the world through unique nightlife and as such the best dancers from around the world will be highlighted for their own style and flair.
