Pillowlando Mmx April 3, 2010

PILLOWLANDO is back!

PILLOWLANDO MMX - Orlando’s Official 2010 International Pillow Fight Day Event, timed to coincide with over 130 pillow fights in cities around the world. This is the event you’ve been waiting all year for. Learn more about International Pillow Fight Day @ http://pillowfightday.com!

All interested PILLOWLANDO MMX participants should bring a pillow to Wall Street Plaza at 5:00 PM and wait for the signal. “Pillow fight!” At that time, pillows will swing and whack as those assembled experience a massive urban pillow fight. It’s free and a ridiculous amount of fun.

Orlandoans who love free, fun, public events like pillow fights, creative interventions, games and interactive art installations are invited to show up and take part, as well as all curious tourists and other Central Floridians who find out about it as International Pillow Fight Day and PILLOWLANDO MMX draws near.

Oh yeah, and that same day is BarCampOrlando! Also free, so attend both!
