Outdoor dancing moves up a notch at the annual Ball on the Mall fundraiser, taking place on Saturday, May 7, from 8:00 pm to 11:30 pm, for an enchanting night amid the moon, stars and monuments.

The Trust for the National Mall’s L’Enfant Society will host the elegant affair in a tent at Madison Drive and 13th Street on the National Mall to help restore the historic park, fondly known as “America’s Front Yard.” The black-tie event will feature dancing to live music, dessert buffets, signature cocktails and complimentary valet parking.

Tickets to this year’s gala are $150 each, of which $125 is tax deductible. VIP reception and dinner tickets are $325 each (with a $270 deduction) and also entitle the recipients to a reception and formal seated dinner two hours prior to the gala.

The L’Enfant Society is a young professionals group that raises money and awareness to support the underfunded and overused Mall, which receives 25 million visitors a year.
