The Irish Ball Committee invites you to join us for a craic-filled evening at the Kempinski Hotel Beijing Yansha Center in Chaoyang, Beijing, China!
Get ready to celebrate Irish Culture in style, with traditional music, dancing, and of course, plenty of Guinness! The Beijing Irish Ball is your chance to immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of Ireland and Irish Culture, right here in Beijing. So grab your friends and get ready to party the night away at the Beijing Irish Ball 2024! We are also delighted to welcome our special guest,
Ambassador of Ireland to China,
H.E. Ann Derwin.
The theme of this years Ball is "Hollywood - Ireland On Screen" – a celebration of Ireland in Cinema and with so many Irish Actors nominated this awards season this theme couldn't be more timely!
DRESS CODE
This is a black-tie event. Come in your best tuxedo/ballgown or let old Hollywood inspire your outfit choice this year. Think Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Ingred Bergman, Elizabeth Taylor or Laurence Olivier, Clarke Gable, Gary Cooper and Humphrey Bogart.
Dressing up is optional and you'll have plenty of opportunities to embrace some Old Hollywood opulence throughout the night. Below are some pictures for inspiration.
ARE YOU PART OF A DYNAMIC DUO?
Hollywood has always had its Famous Duos: Brangelina, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, Laurel and Hardy, Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell to name but a few. Grab your partner, your best friend or anyone for that matter, to be in with the chance of being crowned the Best Dressed Duo on the evening. There will be prizes.
Our Sponsors
No movie or event would ever get made without the generosity and support of its sponsors. The Beijing Irish Ball is forever grateful to those who continually make this event possible. Please raise a glass to this years sponsors…
Lucky Draw Charity Recipient
At the core of the Beijing Irish Ball, we believe in giving back to those less privileged in our community. Our Chosen Charity this year to benefit from our Lucky Draw will be
the Migrant Childrens Foundation.
Founded in 2010, MCF is a voluntary non-profit organisation that provides educational opportunities and resources for disadvantaged children in Beijing and Tianjin. This includes giving children medical checkups and eye tests as well as dental care to ensure that they are both fit and healthy while benefiting from their schooling.
Their Mission ethos comprises three key themes: Cultural Exchange, Giving Back and Sustainability.
Helen Boyle OBE, Founder & CEO believes in improving children's educational needs and cultural awareness. MCF recognises the importance of not only the services provided to the children but also the fact that those that provide the services are also benefiting from the experiences of engaging with the children. This 'giving back' factor is also emphasized in all their programs. Most importantly, they always seek sustainable development, focusing not just on the children's present but also on their futures, where possible.
