This is one of the things we do best
Every year, without fail, The Mystic Krewe of Amon-Ra has held an annual ball since it’s inception.
This is how we ball.
“Nothing compares to being on that stage and transforming reality into a realm of fantasy, even if it is only for one night.
– Jerry Gilley, Krewe of Amon-Ra
INVITATION ONLY
Our annual ball is by invitation only. Each Krewe member is given a table of ten seats. To be invited is quite the honor.
FORMAL ATTIRE
Our ball is a formal event. Tuexedos and dresses are required,
RICH TRADITIONS
