This January marks a historic moment – The Edwardian Ball’s 25th Anniversary! Join us for an elegant, immersive, playful, and decadent weekend of art, music, theater, circus, dance, crafts, and much much more, celebrating a quarter century of costume, character, and our patron saint Edward Gorey!

Continue to anticipate the unanticipatable as you explore three floors of the historic Regency Ballroom in San Francisco, including The Grand Ballroom, The Museum of Wonders, and our famous Vendor Bazaar (also open for free daytime shopping on Saturday).

This year’s featured performance takes us all the way back to the start, to year one of The Edwardian Ball, with the Gorey tale that inspired this all; The Gashlycrumb Tinies.
