Live entertainment
Our line-up for this year will include cosplay-themed acts, live music, belly dancers and spectacular and dangerous feats of bravery! Please check back soon for further updates.
DJs
This year our DJs will be playing more of a mixed set, including 80's cheese/alternative, chart music, anime songs and J-pop/J-rock, showtunes and classical ball music. Our line-up includes resident DJs fromž J-Pop Go.
Set Dances
The best part of any ball is the dancing, and due to popular request we will be extending the set dances and playing more ballroom dancing music than ever before.
Upon entry to the Ball you will be given a "dance card" with the description and time of each of the dances, and a space to write down the name of your partner for each dance. Don't be shy about inviting others to dance: this is a great way to meet people!
Photography Area - Aladdin's Cave
Our photography studio on the top floor will be covered in gold and silk to recreate Aladdin's famous cave!
