I think I would try something like the party in Aristoi, with a huge non-euclidean house with a wide variety of rooms subtly biased for different uses through their design - figuring them out is part of the entertainment, and with sufficient AI the building could change and adapt depending on what people did. Like a huge puzzle or Rubik's cube, with something for everyone. A big library to browse, classical ballrooms, discos, lounges, places to eat, places to debate, a cellar with chains and other implements... :-)
Of course, making something like this in virtual reality is the sensible thing to do, so it would be fun to have it physical. Maybe a big cube standing on a corner right in the middle of the sea (actually held up by a diamondoid pillar, of course).
