A system and method for provisioning virtual machines for a demonstration are described. In one embodiment, the system comprises a scheduling server for enabling a user to schedule a demonstration by selecting a demonstration set and related details using a scheduling web page and a plurality of provisioning servers each connected to the scheduling server via an Internet connection, each of the provisioning servers having stored thereon a plurality of demonstration sets each comprising at least one VM. Responsive to selection of a demonstration set by the user, the scheduling server selects one of the provisioning servers to host the scheduled demonstration and notifies the selected provisioning server of details regarding the scheduled demonstration. The selected provisioning server executes a provisioning process for modifying a configuration file of each at least one VM such that a network number therein is set to a unique number associated with the user and the scheduled demonstration, and modifying a VM snapshot file associated with each at least one VM such that a network number therein is set to the unique number associated with the user and the scheduled demonstration.
