The last BarCamp that was held at ThoughtWorks was a fantastic format for this kind of event. The last Melbourne noobie night the sentiment I believe was that it could have gone on longer.
I'd suggest doing it on a Saturday, starting at say, 9am or 10am, running through to about 4pm and then (of course) heading off to a local pub for further geek-gabbing. If we conducted it over a Saturday it'd mean we can squeeze more presentations in, and conduct a few workshops, too!
