About this Event

Get ready to join the 1940s Ball, dance the night away and have your own reserved spot to return to, eat and rest whenever you would like! Pick a night or come both nights and stay in our room block -- the acts will vary each night! Come celebrate the holidays with us! We love and miss you and we can't wait to make this the best Christmas EVER with you IN-PERSON!
Experience an enchanting evening of dancing with your sweetheart (or maybe meet one!), amidst 1940s and 50s vehicles, movie set lights & props, re-enactors, sleighs, Christmas trees, a canopy of lights & the most sought after big bands and vintage touring acts including Jukebox Saturday Night, The Satin Dollz (coming all the way from Hollywood), Dandy Wellington (Coming straight from NYC), The Hot Tomatoes Dance Orchestra, the (19 piece), Metropolitan Jazz Orchestra, Joe Smith and the Spicy Pickles and Bianca and the Flyboys with the Denver Dolls!
A holiday spectacle of dazzling lights, festive music, and dancing that will bring back the feeling of Christmas, just like the ones ‘you used to know!’

We're back and... It's a Wonderful Life!
In celebration of the 75th anniversary of this timeless classic 1946 Christmas movie, our 2021 theme will be "It's a Wonderful Life"! And to top that off in grand style, ZUZU Bailey (Karolyn Grimes) from the 1946 movie will be joining us! Karolyn will be signing custom, "It's a Wonderful Life" ornaments that you can hang on your tree for years to come. Stop by to say hello to Karolyn, take a photo, and grab an ornament! She will be joining us on both Friday and Sat.
We’ll also have a re-creation of the stage from the movie White Christmas and the entrance to the Columbia Inn, Pine Tree, Vermont! A Count Your Blessings fireplace lounge area and the WWII stage scene from the movie where Bing sings White Christmas!

Watch the most iconic films of the 40s and 50s come to life! You are going to feel just like you are in these legendary movies!

Enjoy our traditional gourmet 1940s style Christmas dinner, dance and watch the entertainment!

Other Information and Policies
Attire

We strongly advise 1940s and 50s holiday themed evening attire, party dresses and/or uniforms. Actual vintage dress is best, however if you cannot find period attire to wear, women can wear a modern dress that is cut like those from the era with vintage accents such as vintage jewelry and/or a flower in their hair and men can wear a modern suit that looks similar to those of the era with accents like a fedora, suspenders or a bow tie. MORE DETAILS here.


Refunds

Tickets are non-refundable. All sales are final and the event is rain, snow or shine. We do not offer refunds due to scheduling conflicts, illness, injury or other personal issues (under any circumstances, there are no exceptions). The value of an unused ticket can be applied to the summer or winter event the following year -- however, you must let us know at least 1 week prior to the event you purchased tickets for so that we can cancel your tickets and catering order. Please email [email protected] to set this up (at least 1 week prior to the event) and we will turn your ticket into a credit voucher good for 1 year. Transfer requests after 1 week prior to the event you purchased tickets for will not be accepted.

Covid Policy:

The safety of our attendees and staff is our primary concern, and we are taking every precaution we can to make the event as safe and responsible as possible. As per Denver Metro public health order, proof of vaccine* or 48-hour negative test results** are required, as well as masks when not eating or drinking. While we did not set this policy, we have to abide by the mandate in order for the event to go ahead.  With vaccinated people transmitting Covid to other vaccinated people and the Omicron variant emerging, masks are the safest and most responsible way to keep the Ball on schedule.  It's not the ideal situation, but better than canceling the event.  We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for understanding as we seek to navigate these emerging developments.

*Acceptable documentation may be a physical copy of a Covid-19 vaccination card, or a digital copy of a card, such as a Mycolorado app, or a photo of your card. To be considered fully vaccinated, you must have completed both Moderna, Pfizer or AstraZeneca shots, or a single Johnson and Johnson shot 2 weeks before the event.

**A negative COVID-19 test result (molecular, PCR or antigen) that was administered by an official testing center. Test results must have been taken within 48 hours of the show. Home testing kits will not be accepted for entry.

We will also have half of the capacity that we usually do to allow for social distancing. Thank you for helping us to keep the 1940s White Christmas Ball on schedule as planned and for your understanding in getting live events back up and running!
