The Hôtel de la Marine invites you to its end-of-year ball in the style of the Second Empire!

The Carnet de Bals association is taking over the main courtyard and state rooms for a ball worthy of the finest receptions held at the Hôtel de la Marine.

The members of the association, who specialise in re-enacting great historical balls, will be taking over the elegant Cour d'Honneur for demonstrations and participatory dances, and the state rooms for dance demonstrations.
