Ever wanted to dance the night away in a Renaissance themed ball wearing the costume of your favorite fictional character? Well then, look no further! I'm pretty sure that most of you, if not all, have never been to a ball in your lives! You've read the stories, you've seen the movies; now it's time to experience it for yourselves! Of course, since one does not simply go to a ball and dance for six hours straight, there will be plenty of other activities to keep you on your toes. LARPS, live shows, computer games, and more should be enough to keep you busy. Aside from the dancing.
As this is also a BALL, there is a dress code that must be followed. One must come either in a formal wear or in cosplay.
- Boys may wear dresses, and girls may wear suits. Everyone is permitted to cosplay
- The suits can be modern; one can even come in jeans (not ripped) with a button-down shirt and a blazer, with a tuxedo, with a regular suit, a three piece suit, etc.
- Whomever does not have any of the above may come wearing jeans (not ripped) and a button-down shirt with long sleeves
- Regarding dresses: the vast majority is acceptable, with long dresses preferred (if you aren't sure if a particular dress is acceptable, send a picture to Libi Soen and she will let you know).
Regarding cosplay:
One may come in cosplay (no metchakem) For example, if one comes in a white shirt and jeans and claims he/she is cosplaying as L from Death Note, but he/she is wearing shoes and has no makeup on, he/she will be denied entrance. Of course, not every cosplay is perfect, but the fact of the matter is that just because you can come cosplaying doesn't mean you can come in regular clothes and say, 'I'm cosplaying, let me in'. Send a picture to Libi Soen and she will let you know if the cosplay is acceptable.
There will be a place to store your belongings free of charge from the beginning of the ball until the end. Food will be served, though it will not be free. The food is from the hall itself, with the hechsher of Mehadrin of Rav Kook, and the meats of Rav Rubin and Landau. And finally, the ball is for ages 13 and up.
There will be an after party when the ball ends, from 11:30 PM until 03:00 AM, at which point it will move to the Tricksrael hall. There will be a place to sleep for those planning to come, which is included in the price of the after party.
Regarding the tickets:
Ball: 45 NIS
After Party: 30 NIS
Ball + After Party: 70 NIS
Ball + Ticket to AnimeCon Chanukah 2014 (does not include the after party): 80 NIS
IMPORTANT: The price of the after party is still being decided on, so the above price may change. Be aware of this.
