Description
Endless Night Productions and Father Sebastiaan are proud to present New Orleans Vampire Ball 2023. To be held on Saturday, October 28th at the legendary House of Blues, located right in the middle of the French Quarter at 225 Decatur Street.
Described as a “Venetian Masquerade meets a Vampire Court, with the energy of a rock concert and the elegance of Burlesque Cabaret” These events are a series of masquerade ball theme soirees produced by Impressario Father Sebastiaan which began in NYC in 1996 with the “Vampyre Ball of New York” and the “Main Gala Event”, the New Orleans Vampire Ball, over Halloween weekend.
Since then EN events have taken place in New Orleans, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Austria, Berlin, Tampa, Salem, Los Angeles, and Dallas. The name Endless Night comes from the William Blake poem “Auguries of Innocence” in which he states “Some are born to Sweet Delight, Others are born to Endless Night.”
