The St. Andrew's Society of Seoul is thrilled to announce the 2024 St. Andrew's Ball
Taking place at the Conrad Hotel in Seoul, men don traditional kilts (or for the non-Scot, suits) and ladies wear their finest dresses for a black tie event featuring Scottish fare, whisky, and dancing!
No, your eyes did not deceive you, this is an all-night affair! Most St. Andrew's Balls held by other Societies around the world conclude before midnight. However, our ball ends at 4AM the next morning and a survivors breakfast awaits those as their reward for staying the course. This tradition harks back to the days when Seoul had a curfew, resulting in the celebration continuing on until the wee hours of the morning. For those new to traditional Scottish dancing or those who need to brush up on the dancing learned in their school days, we offer free dance practices at the British Embassy in the weeks leading up to the ball. For more information about the dances we teach, check out our "Traditional Scottish Dancing" pages.
Ticket sales and dance practice information will be announced at a later date. To be among the first to receive notifications, be sure to sign up for our email newsletter linked above!
