Young, talented and extremely beautiful, the Ujena swimwear models make their annual migration to Puerto Vallarta's tropical paradise and historical promenades August 30 to September 6 for the Ujena Jam.
The fun kicks off with the 4th Annual Ujena Jam Golf Tournament held this year at the world famous Vista Vallarta course. The fun continues with Sunday afternoon's Party by the Sea and everyone in downtown is invited to watch the models and photographers work at shooting the 2010 line of Ujena swimwear, one of the world's most popular brands. Bring your cameras. The action will be based at Punto V.
"This Ujena Jam is a milestone for the company, it will be our 25th anniversary," says Bob Anderson, Ujena Jam Founder and Director. "Every year we add a new event or aspect, and this year we'll be having a 100 meter freestyle swim, and our 5K race, which has always been a big draw for PV's local fitness and running buffs."
Ujena's 5K race will be sponsored by Personal Trainers Vallarta who will lead the warm up session and help set the pace for the September 6th race, which starts near the track across from the Sheraton at 9 am. Local sign ups can be done the day of the event starting at 7:30 am. $1000 in cash prizes are being awarded the winners.
This year the USA Vegan Vixens, a dance and entertainment group, will be providing a fashion show modeling Ujena's new "organic" collection at the Clubkini Party held in conjunction with Maxim en Español's "hotties" party at Punto V on Friday. "These are organic, plant-based fabrics," says PR director Catherine Cross.
Ujena Jam Week in Puerto Vallarta
The Ujena Jam is the world's largest live model and swimwear competition in the world. "Puerto Vallarta provides not only natural beauty and scenic backdrops, but we've been doing this for so long, the town is used to us and everyone really participates in a fun, festive and party atmosphere," says Bob. "It's really true that PV is Mexico's friendliest city."
World famous photographer David Eisenberg from Toronto, who has been the acclaimed man behind the lens for companies such as Armani, Velentinos and magazines like Vogue, will be on hand with other Ujena celebrity photographers and cover girls from years past.
In addition to photo shoots happening at the guest hotel and all around the city, each day is topped off with a themed party where the 12-Member Ujena Staff Team - some of the company's most talented models - provide entertainment and keep the party going.
Puerto Vallarta is one of the most exciting big game fishing destinations on the planet, and we are adding to that excitement! The two day Bisbee's Off-Shore Ujena Jam Fishing Tournament starts September 3rd. Over $11,000 in prizes will be awarded to the winners.
Some of this year's highlight nights will be on Sunday, August 30th at the Mandala Club, on Monday, August 31st at the Jungle Bar with the Ujena Staff in sexy animal prints, on Wednesday, September 2nd with a welcome party at Hilo, and on Thursday, September 3rd's White-Fest at Glam.
This year's Maxim en Español Ujena Clubkini Party, an annual costume party that's always a big hit, will be held on Friday, September 4th at Mandala with a $10,000 pesos cash prize for the best costume.
On Sunday, September 6th, 2009 Ujena Jam Week culminates with the UjENA Image Awards Show (50 Image Awards will be presented by Ujena and more than 35 Jam Partners) at Nitro Club and an after party, celebrating 25 years of Ujena Jams in the Sky Bar.
