BALLO TIEPOLO ^®

The Tiepolo Ball, at its 26th edition, is set in the cultural heart of Venice: La Fenice Theatre, specifically in the halls historically dedicated to dance and entertainment, the Apollonian Halls. They were dedicated to the God of Sun Apollo, with clear reference to Louis XIV, the Sun King of France, great patron saint of ballet and the arts, which inspired the opening show.

The guests will be welcomed by a rich aperitif in the foyer of the theatre followed by a rich DINNER in the Apollonian Halls. During the evening the CLASSICAL ORCHESTRA will create a lovely atmosphere together with the opera singers, dancers and the various performers who will perform on the stage of the main Apollonian hall and will move between the tables of the Ammannati Hall, dwearing sumptuous costumes created by the Atelier Tiepolo.

The menu, created ad hoc and with attention to details by our chef, will present fish dishes. For those who prefer a vegetarian or meat menu, can indicate it at the time of booking.

After dinner, the GRAND BALL will begin in the foyer of the theatre. There, the Dance Master with his partner will involve the guests in the historical dances of the European courts, and the orchestra will accompany them. Between dances, guests can enjoy hot chocolate, Venetian fritters and Prosecco.

It is compulsory to wear a PERIOD COSTUME, which can be rented at the ATELIER TIEPOLO (look below for the different offers).

LA FENICE THEATRE

Since its construction in 1792 by the architect Giannantonio Selva the style of the Gran Teatro La Fenice is the neoclassical style then resumed also by Giambattista Meduna for the restoration of 1854; this style appears 'old fashion' for the time, but dusting off the art of the late eighteenth century, Meduna hopes to be able to conserve in this theatre the memory of an era in which Venice was still great. He wanted to remove the specter of decadence in which the city was pouring, even for the time of a show.

APOLLONIAN HALLS

The Apollonian Halls, also in neoclassical style, have always been the beloved place of the city as a ballroom, venue for concerts and, in more recent times, venue for cultural initiatives. The dinner will take place in the Main Apollonian Hall and in the Ammannati Hall.
