The Wild Asparagus Ball
&
The Wild Goose Masquerade Ball
 

Authentic Viennese Balls, featuring Waltzes and Polkas performed by the fifty-piece Mostly Strauss Orchestra. The evening commences with a Grand March to enable the approximately 400 dancers to see and be seen by everyone! Then it's three hours of high-energy dance music from the 19th and 20th centuries by the Strauss Family, Khachaturian, Waldteufel and even Gershwin, Ellington and Glen Miller. The dances are mostly waltzes and polkas, but also include a smattering of Tango, Latin and Swing numbers. These are evenings made for people who love to dance and socialize!

Spring: The Wild Asparagus Ball is an elegant evening of dance with a note of formality. Dance cards are provided, but are not required.

Fall: The Wild Goose Masquerade Ball blends dancing and partying together. You are always encouraged to wear a costume of any shape or form to the Wild Goose Ball. You decide your own theme--whether it be vintage dance wear or a character from Star Trek--just keep in mind that you're going to be dancing too.
