When I was younger I used to look up to my tv and say: "When I grow up, I want to be famous, I want to be a star, I want to be on the big stage." Looking up to these big artists and wishing that one day I will make it.
Tonight it is our turn to shine on the runway and we will pay tribute to those artist that inspired us! Bring it in a look inspired by the artist you look up to. Make it hot, make it fab and don’t forget, make it FASHIONABLE!!!

What are Balls?
Parties where the participants compete with each other in different performance categories in the name of their house. A jury assesses the presentation of a participant within a certain category. The categories are about sexuality and gender; the masculine and feminine expressions within those.
The popular Netflix series Pose might seem to have spurred the growing interest in balls in the Netherlands, but it actually has been on the rise for years. As a spectator we would recommend to go watch the series. It really showcases the necessity of the Ballroom culture.
Rules of conduct
Balls are a safe space where participants and spectators treat each other with respect and without judgement. It is important that we can secure this atmosphere, so that everyone can feel at ease and at home during the event.
The rules of conduct will be explained at the start of the event.
