As your personal dance teacher for the evening we present you Lieven Baert,
historical court dance specialist, famous choreographer and guest professor
at dance universities worldwide!
Between 9:30 and 10:30 PM, you will be able to follow
a Russian inspired dance lesson from him.
Next Gala Nocturna is on Saturday February 11, 2012!
This year's theme is "A Russian Fairytale", on ode to Russian tales and folklore.
The poster shows Vasilisa, the main character in the fairytale
"Vasilisa the Brave". You can read the entire story here.
Tickets cost 20 euro and can be purchased here.
Always nice to get some press attention, especially by Gazet van Antwerpen.
I remember the photographer trying to get in without wearing one of our "guest capes". Although we initially refused - there was a strict dress code after all - I'm glad to have let him in since the article turned out really nice.
But photographers beware, this was a rare exception, so keep our dress code in mind when visiting us next year!
For the first time in the history of Gala Nocturna, we had an exquisite costume contest! His Majesty and his counselors chose our "Queen of the Night" from all candidate queens who dressed in this year's theme. It was a tough choice, but in the end they decided to crown Lady Inge from the Netherlands as the first Queen of Gala Nocturna!
Check out the portrait gallery for pictures of our amazingly dressed Queen and guests.
Still struggling to stay awake after a very long night and an early cleanup morning, we already wanted to thank all our guests for their presence - some of them came from very very far - and for putting so much effort in their magnificent costumes! A lot of thanks as well to our entire crew for doing a wonderful job (as always) and to our performers who made us dream about ethereal songs and exotic dances on music by Nicholas Lens.
Finally special thanks to His Majesty, our King of the Night, to his counselors, to the legendary Swan Princess and to the candidates of our costume contest!
Join the most beautiful neo-romantic ball in the world! This year for the 5th time and on a brand-new location, a fantastic Baroque church in the center of Antwerp, Belgium. Wonderful acts, heavenly music, special drinks, absinthe bar, fairy cupcakes and, above all, hundreds of magnificently dressed visitors from all over Europe.
Be part of this extaordinary evening and pass the doors to a unique and magical world!
