ADSLA presents the Virtual Avalon Ball

We were extremely disappointed by the thought of not seeing you all on Catalina Island for our 2020 Avalon Ball, a signature event that pays tribute to the days when Big Bands played for thousands of dancers in the 1929 Avalon Casino Ballroom, while the music was broadcast live to the nation listening at home.

Well folks, that is exactly what we are going to do. We are going to build an Avalon Ball you can enjoy from home. You can dress up, come as you are, dance in your living room or sit and listen to the LIVE music from Dean Mora and more musicians. There will be cocktails mixed live, a grand promenade into the venue (for those planning to dress for the occasion), some history shared (of the island, dancing, men's and women's formal dress) and MUCH, MUCH more!

This LIVE event will take place from 2 - 5 PM (PST) on Saturday, May 16, 2020 (the night we would have convened on Catalina Island).

Broadcast from Los Angeles, CA
Pre-Show
2 - 3 PM PDT

Dancing & Music
3 - 5 PM PDT

Tickets are $10. Proceeds will pay the musicians and cover our production expenses.

Please help us spread the word by sharing our Facebook event and feel free to share this information with your vintage community or heritage organization. We hope that those who have not been able to attend in the past, due to geography, will be able to participate in this unique interactive adventure!

This Avalon Ball will take place as a Zoom event. It will be necessary to have the Zoom app running on your phone or computer, if you wish to participate. You can open an account for free.

The Zoom link will be sent to you with your confirmation from our ticket agency (Agile). You will be required to register for the event on Zoom prior to May 16th.
