Just because New Year’s is over doesn’t mean you have to stop partying. If you live in the Dallas area, the party of the year might be happening a little sooner than December 31st. The NBA’s 2010 All-Star Game is being held in Dallas this year and to celebrate this, a host of all-star parties are taking place across the city from February 11-14.

Parties hosted by Dallas legends such as Terrell Owens (I know, wrong sport), Greg Buckner, Devin Harris and Josh Howard are taking place all over the city during the All-Star Weekend, but the biggest of them all promises to be Friday’s “Diddy Does Dallas” at the Palladium Ballroom, hosted by Buckner, Howard and none other than Sean John Combs himself. Interesting fact: Diddy actually designed the Maverick’s alternate jersey for this season – I guess everything moves in circles.

With close to 10,000 people slated to show up to Diddy’s party, along with DJs from around the country, it’s pretty much certain that this is going to be a party that Dallas will remember long after this year’s All-Star Game. Tickets are available now and you can get them here, but they’re going fast! For more info, check out www.allstarweekend2010.com.
