A BALL OF ALL ERAS
A dazzling ball night with lots of pleasure & dance
After we have dressed in our historical garments
following the end of the course,
we will start the ball with spectators around 8:00 PM.
Just like in the old days, there will be feasting, laughing, and lots of dancing...
The ball takes place in the form of the former balls during carnival time.
Thus, according to margravial command, not only must everyone behave quietly
and with modesty, but all classes in general must also
keep themselves so equal that no distinction in dancing
or sitting is made to the detriment or disadvantage of others.
So there is no difference in class & rank.
It doesn't matter whether dressed historically or costumed, everyone is welcome here,
here everyone celebrates and dances with each other...
the renaissance of dance and balls.
Give yourselves freely to the merry hustle and bustle. Viva Carnevale!
