presentation
The Hôtel de la Marine invites you to its Ghost Ball! For Halloween, ghosts from every era gather for one night only…
Specialists in re-enacting historical balls, the members of the Carnet de Balsassociation will immerse you in the magical atmosphere of the prestigious receptions that once enlivened this historic monument.
These enthusiasts will take over the main courtyard to offer demonstrations and participatory dances, where everyone can be swept away onto the dance floor; and the state rooms, for refined dance demonstrations in a sumptuous setting.
how to attend the ball
There are two ways to enjoy the ball:
- In the main courtyard, watch the demonstrations free of charge and join the dancers on the floor for open-to-all participatory dances.
- In the state rooms, enjoy the dance demonstrations, which are accessible upon booking a ‘Period Ball’ ticket.
