About .PARTY Domain Names

For those intent on mastering the art of hosting the perfect gathering, the .party domain name will provide an exceptional online space. An ideal home base for party planning, electronic invitation generation, event supply details, venue information or social media platforms for events, the .party extension will enrich the online world with festivity details.

Registration Information

The .party launch is divided into two registration phases: Trademark Holder (Sunrise) and Pre-Registration (General Availability.) Each phase has specific application requirements:

Pre-Registration

Pre-registration gives you the best possible chance of securing a domain name before it's available to the general public, but it doesn't guarantee you will get it. You can only pre-register for General Availability, and we'll submit your registration application when the phase begins.

Multiple applications with different registrars are resolved on a first-come, first-served basis during General Availability. If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we'll refund the registration fee.

Trademark Holders Registration - Sunrise

From December 8, 2014 at 15:00 UTC to February 6, 2015 at 15:00 UTC, trademark holders can submit an application to register a .party domain containing their owned mark, before it's available to the public.

Trademark validation goes through the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH), which is an ICANN global repository for trademark data. Visit the TMCH website for information on registering a trademark.

Bulk .party registration is not supported during Sunrise.

If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we cannot refund the registration or application fees.

Note: You cannot cancel your pre-registration application. If you are awarded the domain name, you have 5 days to cancel your domain name and get a refund of the registration fee.

Pre-Registration - General Availability

Beginning February 17, 2015 at 15:00 UTC, customers can register .party domain names on a first-come, first-served basis.

Bulk .party registration is supported during General Availability.

Note: If you are awarded the domain name, you have 5 days to cancel your domain name and get a refund of the registration fee.
