Belfast Books and Ballgowns

Our theme this year is “Away with the Faeries”. Seeming as Ireland is the land of the Fae, we thought it fitting.
This event is the only of its kind in Northern Ireland, and we are so proud and cannot wait to bring it to you.
Pull on your dresses or suits, your old wedding dresses, or even come in cosplay.
Stick your fae ears on, and your crowns, and come with us as we guide you into a magical night.

• Author panels all day
• Music, shows and performances
• A bar
• Photo opportunities with props, photo booths and fantasy backdrops.
• Lunch options.
• A quiet reading area
• Cosplay competitions
• Raffle prizes.

On the way into our Faerie Ball, you will be greeted with a live champagne wall,
lift your drink and continue to our photo areas.
There is no better way to commemorate your beautiful outfits than with
a 360 video camera, and multiple props with fantasy backdrops.
Think swords, and throne chairs.
Live that High Lady and High Lord dream,
accompanied by a beautiful string quartet.

Once you have finished with your photos, make your way into our Grand Ballroom.
Appetizers will be served, along with multiple sweetie and snack stations.
There is a full bar with themed drinks, and the ballroom is fully decorated and catered to our fantasy dreams.
Whether you want to sit down at one of the many tables and watch the crowd,
or get straight onto the dance floor, we have you covered.
A Full band will play to start, and a DJ will bring home our night.

On top of this, one lucky person will be crowned
Belfast Books & Ballgowns High Lord or Lady,
and will be gifted with flowers and a brand new crown.
