The Austentatious Ball

The Austentatious Ball was a free, outdoor celebration inviting everyone to embrace their most ostentatious selves — whatever that means to them! Taking over Guildhall Square outside MAST Mayflower Studios, this unforgettable participatory event brought together 100 people for an evening of dance, live entertainment, and joyful self-expression. From grandeur and glitter to gothic flair or favourite tracksuits, guests dressed to express and took part in a dance extravaganza rooted in the real stories, voices, and styles of today’s communities.
