New Year's Eve Victorian Gala

December 31, 2009

Doors Open at 8pm

Evening Ends at 12:30am

Ring out the old and bring in the new with Mount Hope at the 2nd Annual New Year's Eve Gala! Dress in all your Victorian finery, if you'd like, and indulge in the charm of 19th century music and dance.

Miss Daisy Grubb graciously welcomes you to her stately home for this very special evening. The elaborately decorated rooms of Mount Hope Mansion provide a festive and elegant backdrop for this New Year's Eve Gala, an event that truly brings to life the romance of the Victorian Era.

Dance the night away in an atmosphere steeped in the allure of days gone by.

As the midnight hour approaches, complimentary champagne and party favors ensure that the New Year is greeted with a rousing cheer of hip, hip, huzzah from all!

A warm glow from the fireplace and flickering candles sheds light on a tantalizing feast of sumptuous heavy hors d'oeuvres, carving stations and gourmet desserts, while Mount Hope Wines and Swashbuckler Ales, available at the open bar, are a delicious way to wet your whistle between dances.

Enchanting music from the 19th century will be provided. You'll succumb to the sway of the tunes, sweeping across the ballroom floor through charming dances from a more genteel and chivalrous time.

And, in true Mount Hope interactive style, Father Time, Mother Nature, and none other than Baby New Year will be at hand providing hilarious entertainment for your enjoyment.

Anyone under 21 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
