It's WWDC time again and regardless of the double whammy of Apple going up against the world's biggest games show (E3) and actually announcing what they're going to reveal in advance, there's STILL the usual clamour of iOS-infused excitement on the streets of San Francisco.

As usual though, it's outside the auditoriums and tech-panels where the real business will be done, so in order to facilitate a successful time, Showdog has rounded up the best (and the rest) of the events to occupy your evenings in the coming week. Now get out there and have fun damnit!

N.B. Usual disclaimers apply and Showdog accepts no liability for any booze-fuelled illness, deal-breaking drunken behaviour, or long-term damage caused to relationships with wives/girlfriends/significant others as a result of this information. What's more, many of the parties below are strictly invite-only so if you don't think you'll get in, don't turn up!
