Another Anime Convention presents its fourth annual dance: The Vermillion Ball

The Vermillion Ball will held Friday of the convention. Guests can expect both formal as well as pop music.

There will be only a minor alteration to the dress code for this years formal. Masks will be mandatory for all attendees of the dance. There will be a panel sometime earlier in the day on Friday for those that are interested in making their own mask to match their evening wear. There will also be masks available at the door for the guests that would not like to create their own.

The mask idea will be leading up to the "Big Reveal." Which, of course, will be the last dance of the evening. Please make sure to review the dress code in order to have the proper attire for the evening!

Once again, there will be NO sign-ups this year. However there will be a 100 person cap. You will need an invitation to secure a space at the ball. Invitations can be picked up Friday up to an hour before the dance and are given out in a first come first served basis. No more than two invitations will be given to one person.

If you have any questions, you can contact Christy, the Vermillion Ball coordinator, at formal@anotheranimecon.com. Please look forward to it and we can't wait to see all of you there!
