DETROIT, MI. (diddyshousedetroit.com) - Super Bowl Weekend, Sean 'Diddy' Combs plans to throw the biggest Celebrity Bash of the year, sparing no expense.
In order to prepare for this event,
Diddy has partnered with Executive One to pull off the most elaborate extreme renovation
Detroit will ever see for a 3-day event. February 3-5, 2005, Detroit's Captain's Bar & Grille will be transformed into Diddy's House, billed as the largest entertainment venue to host a Super Bowl event in the Motor City. For an event of this caliber, The Captain's Bar & Grille, which originally had a maximum capacity of 700, will re-design and extend its floor plan to accommodate 2,500 VIP Super Bowl fans.
Preparations to host this event mirror those of a host committee for the Super Bowl. To ensure the satisfaction of the Diddy's House patrons, a logistics plan, comparable to a presidential motorcade, has been implemented. Responsive to the anxiety that 'out-of-towners' often experience when trying to navigate through congested and heavily restricted streets of an unknown city, such as Detroit, the logistics plan will include a non-stop shuttle service to the venue.
The weekend will commence, on Friday, with A Black Affair hosted by Young Jeezy. This exclusive all black affair will feature a live performance by UGK's Bun B. Then Saturday, Diddy's House will host Diddy's 5th Annual Players Ball. And Sunday, the star-studded celebrity bash weekend will culminate with Diddy's Diamonds & Furs, where NFL Great, Michael Vick will be on hand to host and give away a mink fur coat to one deserving male and female.
A portion of the proceeds from the 3-day event will benefit Detroit's St. John's Hospital and the Coalition of Temporary Shelter (COTS). Additionally, a Mackenzie High School student will receive a scholarship, courtesy of Diddy and Executive One.
Sponsors for Diddy's House include: Elite Car Company, Broadway Clothing and Manhood Grooming Gallery.
