Inauguration Hotel Packages

Pennsylvania Democratic Party
2009 Inauguration Hotel Packages

The Pennsylvania Democratic Party is pleased to announce 2009 Inauguration Hotel Packages to celebrate the Inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama and Vice-President-elect Joe Biden.

The Pennsylvania Democratic Party hotel package includes 2-nights (room and taxes) at the Washington Plaza Hotel located at 10 Thomas Circle, NW on Monday, January 19th and Tuesday, January 20th. Guests may check-in at 3:00 p.m. on Monday and must check-out by 12:00 noon on Wednesday. If you would like to extend your stay in Washington, you may make arrangements directly with the hotel.

The Washington Plaza Hotel is in the heart of D.C., 5 blocks from the White House and just a few blocks from the McPherson Square Metro Station. You can learn more about the Washington Plaza Hotel by visiting www.washingtonplazahotel.com.

Hotel rooms in the Washington D. C. area are in high demand allowing hotels to command exorbitant rates (upwards of $700 per night) and requiring 4-night minimum stays. We were pleased to offer these packages at a much lower price than the conditions required by many Washington hotels and to include a little something extra to celebrate this great moment in time!

YES WE DID!

On Monday evening, please join us for the YES WE DID CELEBRATION! We’re so proud of the work Pennsylvanians did for President-elect Obama and Vice-President-elect Biden’s 11-point victory in Pennsylvania that we think we deserve a celebration of our own. Join Governor Rendell, Chairman Rooney and other Pennsylvania dignitaries at the Monday evening celebration no one will want to miss! With your package, you will receive complimentary tickets for this event. Tribeca Grand, the band that rocked Governor Rendell’s Inaugural Celebrations, will provide dance music, and in the coming weeks, look for announcement of other celebrity guests. Additional tickets will also be available for purchase.

Due to high demand and the expense to the Pennsylvania Democratic Party for inauguration activities, there are a very limited number of packages available. Therefore, we must implement the following rules. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding that no exceptions can be made.

Packages are available to registered Pennsylvania Democrats and your registration will be verified on the voter file. In the event it is not located, you will be asked to provide a copy of your voter registration card.
