A Ball for All Seasons: Springtide

An Enchanting Evening of Regency Dance, Music, and Spring Cheer!

Step into the freshness and joy of spring with the elegance of the Regency era at Laughing With Lizzie’s A Ball for All Seasons: Springtide. Enjoy an unforgettable evening of graceful dancing, the opportunity to have your silhouette hand-cut as a keepsake, and a sumptuous buffet – all set within the historic Purley Barn, Reading.

Both new and experienced dancers are warmly welcome, and Regency dress is strongly encouraged to enhance the atmosphere (but not compulsory).

Doors open at 6:00pm, allowing time to settle in and enjoy a sparkling welcome drink before the dancing begins. The ball will start promptly at 6:30pm, so arriving early will ensure you make the most of the evening.
