The Alexander Ball

The Alexander Ball

Electrifying. Dramatic. Innovative.

Meanjin’s trailblazing ballroom house, The House of Alexander returns to The Tivoli once again for one extravagant night not to be missed.

Carrying on the legacy of ballroom and the courageous Trans women of colour all the way from Harlem New York, this night will showcase self expression, identity, and talent to the forefront of our thriving scene.

The Alexander Ball brings eight striking categories that celebrates what it means to be unapologetically queer and for sure will make for an unforgettable night!

Ballroom is about more than the artistry. It is about safety and elevating the voices of those who would otherwise be dismissed by the colonial project.
