Solidarity Ball

Konzerthaus Klagenfurt

An exclusive celebration of humanity & community

Together, Rotary Carinthia & Caritas are sending a strong signal for social commitment.

All net proceeds will support disadvantaged children and people in need in Carinthia.
Notarially supervised. Transparently documented. Effectively used.

Information

A ball of the highest order

A varied music and dance program will make the dancer's heart beat faster. In 3 halls, the Imperial Dance Orchestra, Motionman with Felicitas Neubersch and “E-Royal”, the international disc jockey with Carinthian roots, will entertain. A unique opening with an opera medley by artists from the Klagenfurt City Theater, or a “Rotary Midnight Quadrille” promise a varied evening. The Caritas workshops will provide festively decorated event rooms and the ball will leave nothing to be desired in terms of culinary delights.

An exclusive meeting point

The festive evening under the patronage of the Governor of Carinthia radiates far beyond our state borders. Initial commitments from top Austrian companies (e.g. Verbund Board) or Rotary clubs from all over Austria and the Alpe Adria region suggest an event that has never existed before in Carinthia.

A platform for togetherness

The Rotary Soiree aims to be a platform for the meeting of our diverse Carinthian social groups. On branded tables there will be the table of the Club Carinthia Vienna, the Association of Slovenian Business, Carinthian Tourism, the Carinthians in Europe, the Klagenfurt city judges, the Landscape of Knowledge, the Alpe Adria University, Carinthian Sports, the Klagenfurt City Theater and many more.

Social elegance meets social commitment

The charitable idea will be the focus of this evening. All net proceeds from the ball will go to selected aid projects of Rotary & Caritas Carinthia. The lend.raum Klagenfurt to support people with mental challenges, the Eggerheim Klagenfurt as a day center for homeless people and the Lerncafé Klagenfurt, which enables children and young people to receive free learning and homework support. Together, these projects contribute to greater social participation, educational equality and humanity in Carinthia.

Dress code

Ladies – full ball gown or floor-length evening dress.
Gentlemen – suit & tie/bow tie, tuxedo or gala uniform.

The ball committee reserves the right to refuse entry to those who are not appropriately dressed!
