The event takes place on May 23, 2026, from 8:00 PM to 11:59 PM at Camberwell Uniting Church Hall. Participants should bring their own mug and a plate of supper to share, with tea and coffee provided; alcohol is not permitted, and COVID-safe procedures are in place. This community-focused ball offers an accessible introduction to historical Australian dance traditions.
