"This first-of-its-kind event is a unique opportunity for exhibitors to showcase the world's finest audio, video and lifestyle products for hard-to-reach audiences in the comfort of their own private clubs nationwide," said Philip Elias, president and CEO of VELOCITY World Media.  "One of the most unique aspects of this showcase is that the evening's entertainment – presented live by the historic Harlem Stage – will be seen and heard on the equipment being showcased.  It's the ideal opportunity for the ideal audience to experience a new generation of high-performance home entertainment technology."

The nationwide High Performance Audio Video Showcase will create a unique setting for national and regional exhibitors to interact one-on-one with an engaged, affluent audience in multiple markets simultaneously.  Members and their guests attending the world's largest AV party will be entertained in viewing suites custom-outfitted with top-of-the-line sight and sound equipment.  The one-night-only event will include a cocktail party, a 90-minute concert presented by Harlem Stage, and an after-party for exhibitors to showcase equipment.

"This is an opportunity for Harlem Stage to reach a vast audience with the unique and diverse artistic legacy of Harlem and the indelible impression it's made on American culture," said James King, managing director of Harlem Stage.  "We're excited to work alongside VELOCITY World Media to give our talented artists another platform to touch as many people as possible."
