Mr. Fezziwig's Ball

Return to the romantic times of Mr. Dickens and Queen Victoria at Mr. Fezziwig’s Grand Ball. The ball is conducted exactly the way such an affair would have been managed in Victorian times complete with dance cards and beautifully dressed ladies and gentlemen twirling about the dance floor. The Philadelphia Quadrille Orchestra will again provide appropriate music for dancing and Dance Mistress Robin Bancroft will  guide the dancers through Quadrilles, waltzes and polkas.

Prince Albert and Queen Victoria lead the Grand March.


In 2010 a very special knighting was held as Queen Victoria knighted Annmarie Weaver, and Janet and Henry Funderburk. The new Knight and Dames were presented to the crowd and then joined Queen Victoria and Prince Albert in the Grand March.
