What's Happening?

The Shinju Matsuri Opening Ball is returning once again and this years theme is ROCK N ROLL!

Not just any rock n roll, we’re talking about the birth of rock n roll, from where it all began.

Little Richard, Buddy Holly, the Supremes and the King of Rock n Roll – Mr Elvis Presley!

Included in their ticket, all guests will receive a welcome drink on arrival, along with a substantial supper served all throughout the evening.

Dress code:

Thanks to rock and roll, young people worldwide could express themselves through daring clothing styles, eccentric hairstyles, and unusual statement accessories. The non-conformity, leather, denim, and rockabilly fashion of the 1950s expressed the spirit of the music and authenticity of the generation.

Rockabilly, ducktails & Teddy Boys. Pencil skirts, bumper bangs & red lipstick.

Think of the movie Grease – with your own individual flare.
