The Grand Ball at Winstanley House is more than an event; it’s a Leicester-based time capsule that transports you back to an era of elegance and mystery.
The 2023 ball was a spectacular display of historical intrigue and sensory delight, leaving guests enthralled by its vivid portrayal of the past. Looking ahead as they transition to a Christmas theme in 2024, the Ball promises an even more mesmerizing experience.
Historian Jim Butler, reprising his role as host James Beaumont Winstanley, expresses his anticipation: “This is more than just a ball; it’s a journey through time, where history breathes life into every corner. In 2023, we brought to life the untold stories of the past, and for 2024, we aim to blend these narratives with the festive spirit. I’m eager to witness our guests’ reactions as they delve into the Winstanleys’ secrets over dinner.”
Set against the melodious backdrop of the Tuxedo Swing jazz band, the night will offer a lavish three-course gourmet meal. Emily Thompson, a previous attendee, shares her memories: “The Grand Ball was a journey to a different era. The synergy of food, music, and ambiance created an atmosphere perfect for unwinding and forging new friendships.” She adds with a hint of excitement, “I’m already looking forward to next year’s event with great anticipation, eager to relive those wonderful moments and create new ones at the next Grand Ball.”
The Grand Ball 2024 is set to be an immersive experience. Chandini Mistry, the Murder Mystery Writer and Director, hints at what’s in store: “Each year, the Grand Ball surpasses expectations, and 2024’s Christmas-focused event will be a spectacular blend of historical intrigue and festive charm. We’re preparing incredible surprises for our guests, ensuring a night where history and holiday spirit intertwine seamlessly.”
