A Winter Regency Ball

Saturday, February 7, 2026, from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.

In case of inclement weather, there is a rain date for the Ball of Sunday, February 8 from 4:00 - 7:00 p.m.

Come get your Bridgerton on and dance like Jane Austen, as Gore Place hosts a Winter Regency Ball.

Get dressed in your Regency finest and dance the night away in the Great Hall of the Gore Mansion. Live musicians will play English country dances from the Regency Period. Social Dance Historian Ruth Benson Levin will guide you through dances, involving simple, repeated step patterns.

Bring your significant other, a group of friends, or come on your own. All the dances are group dances with gender neutral roles. As you and your partner move down the line, you will find yourselves dancing with nearly everyone else at the Ball.

Regency ballroom attire is not required but will be much admired. We strongly advise, however, that participants wear comforable, flat shoes and cloth gloves to make hand holding more comfortable (Gore Place will have gloves available to borrow for those who do not own any).

Dance cards and refreshments will be provided.

Space is limited. This event is intended for adults.
