This news shall reach the scent of the young, beautiful and mortal with the opportunity to dress in your finest evening dress among various alternative lifestyle communities, to gather once more in a celebration, to socialise and dance the night away.
The Masked Vamprye Ball strives to offer its guests the experience of a formal gala at an attainable price; shared with like-minded people who appreciate creative and individual expression. Guests are encouraged, but not required, to arrive masked.
As the clock strikes 9pm, the precocious young vampires of the mini Imp'aler Orchestra, under the conductorship of the Esteemed Lord Vlad the VI, shall serenade the ballroom of the undead with symphonies of the great composer, Maoriginal.
The non-blood relations bring you the duo of Nôze from France. Nôze are two comrades, two troublemakers, full of life, joy and happiness, often wearing their straw hats and stripping off their clothes at the end of their show. Playing a combination of Balkan and electro house, all with live instruments and song.
In Cloak Towne, the Nomadic Orchestra shall have even the most distinguished guest swinging like a rabid bat off the crystal chandeliers. In the old Transvaalania we have summoned Bram Stoker himself to read from his classic tome.
Guests are reminded to make their preparations in due time as to not be caught off guard, for the revelry shall be such that daylight might sneak up upon the proceedings and vapourise the ill-equipped!
