J.W. Marriot to offer Viennese Ball on March 8

J.W. Marriot invites its public to the superb elegance of the Viennese spirit, the fairytale atmosphere, the high-strung young couples of debutants, and most of all the thrill of the waltz and its immortal rhythm. All over world, between November 11 and the beginning of March, Vienna and other capital cities bring back to life the splendor of the traditional ball season.

The most famous such events include the magnificent Opernball (The Ball of the Opera), held at the State Opera of Vienna (Staatsoper); Ball der Wiener Philharmoniker (The Ball of the Viennese Philharmonic) – an exquisitely elegant event hosted in the Musikverein building; but also the three balls held in the grand Imperial Palace of Hofburg: Kaiserball (The Imperial Ball), starting on December 31st of each year; Juristenball (The Ball of the Magistrates) – famous as the high society event; and the Gala der Wiener Wirtschaft (The Gala of the Viennese Industry).

However, a new tradition has emerged, with classic Viennese Balls organized outside the borders of Austria – including the events in New York, Washington, Moscow, London, Melbourne and, of course, the refined Viennese Ball held every year in Bucharest, an event that reached its ninth edition.

This year, the beneficiaries of this Viennese Ball are United Way, an NGO working to improve the quality of life in Romania’s communities through individual giving, corporate giving, and volunteerism and S.O.S. Satele Copiilor, which supports and protects over 1000 children through the 3 national programmes from Bucharest, Sibiu, and Bacau.
