The venue

We're going all-out to create a magical themed dining hall befitting The Great Wizard's Ball and The Abbey at Gold Creek (Nicholls), with its enormous gothic organ taking centre stage, is the perfect venue.

Bring some Galleons

Although most activities will be free, we ask you to consider making a gold coin donation for each. The Smith Family may run their own fund-raising activities so you'll need to bring money for that.

Age-restrictions

You must be 13 years or older to attend The Great Wizards' Ball starting at 7pm and all minors MUST be accompanied by an adult. Minors WILL NOT be allowed entry to the ball without an accompanying adult. As alcohol will be served, proof of age may be required. The organisers are relying on adults to supervise minors to ensure the relevant laws, restrictions and licensing rules are respected and upheld.

All minors attending the earlier family-friendly Ball starting at 3pm MUST be accompanied by an adult and vice versa. Note that alcohol will be available at the bar but we ask accompanying parents and carers to drink responsibly.
