The Fairie Queen is hosting a Royal Legacy Ball for the Littles and then a Rave at 7:00 PM for the older kids!

All Magical kids and families from the Kingdoms of Potter, Middle Earth, Narnia, Oz, Arendelle,  Avalon, Atlantis, Avonlea, and other Galaxies are welcome!

Don your fantasy, costume, dress up, or formal attire and come prepared for magic! The historic The Ravington ballroom in Centerton will be transformed into an enchanted spring forest full of wonder and wizardry! Live music! Entertainment! Princesses and Pirates! Oh my!

The event will be full of surprises and entertainment! Each ticket provides entertainment, lemonade, tea, water, and sugary snacks such as cookies and cotton candy. 

The first session (4:00 PM) is for ages 4+ and will be very Potter and Disney-esque. The 7:00 PM time is geared towards ages 10+ and will be a RAVE but family oriented! It's the perfect time to bring your older kids or teens and have a blast!

Tickets are $25 per person. However, because the owners of The Ravington are a local family and they realize times are hard for many, they have added an option for "Pay what you can afford". They have worked incredibly hard to create a family-friendly special event for everyone and don't want anyone to miss out due to a lack of funds. If you can afford the full amount, please pay it. If you cannot afford it, please pay what you can and know that we are thankful you are joining us!

This is not just a daddy-daughter dance, although daddies & daughters are certainly welcome!  It can be a mother/son date, an aunt and niece, a whole family, a blended or stepfamily, gay parents, religious families, etc. This is about connection with your loved ones, so you create the lineup that works for you. We can't wait to see grandparents with their grandkids dancing together! We will be hosting all families with kindness and respect and we ask that all attending do the same!

The 7PM session is a family-friendly RAVE for kids ages 10 & up.  For the parents who used to party and miss it, this is your chance to bring your kids to a clean and family-friendly club. Yoga Story is sponsoring our Family Rave at 7:00 PM and there will be blacklights, a light-up LED dancefloor, glowsticks, a killer DJ, and more! All ages are welcome but know that this is not the right environment for anyone with sensory issues.

Q. Do I have to dress up?
A. You don't "have" to, but  it will make the experience all the more magical for you and your loved ones! There will be prizes given out for best family costume, most original attire, etc.
