What is the BushBall???
Why a grand ball-of-a-time in the bush of course!
As the name suggests, this will be a party in the bush, with some amazing decor, fabulous costumes and really cool people! BYOD.
BushBall is a themed party, so YOU MUST DRESS UP! (Otherwise you will be sad). Especially as there are PRIZES for best dressed!
This year's theme: Fairytales!
From the Brothers Grimm, to modern Disney adaptations, or whatever fairytales you grew up with, we want to see these stories brought to LIFE!
COST TO BE CONFIRMED!!
