The Chalgrove Midsummer Ball is a biennial Black Tie event held in the grounds of a 13th Century Manor House in the Oxfordshire village of Chalgrove. Held in a purpose-built Marquee, your ticket to the Ball includes a complimentary glass of fizz on arrival; a three-course silver-service dinner, a Grand Auction, raffle, plus a live band and a disco to keep you up and dancing until the small hours! The primary focus of the Ball is to raise money for charities, as well as bringing the community together, and most importantly, to have fun! The event is wholly funded by the sale of tickets, and all profits from the bar, auction and raffle go to our nominated charities. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Ball, and over the 10 years we have raised over £40,000 for charity. What better way to spend a glorious English summer's evening with friends and family?
