I'm going to Fetes Galantes, the ball at Versailles, just outside Paris, France this May! In this vidoe, I'll discuss the ball itself - including what it is, where it is. I'll also discuss what costumes are worn there, and what eras are appropriate, along with a tiny bit of history of Versailles.

Then I'll get to how to get tickets - how to choose the tickets and activities, and tips for going.

Finally, I'll show off what I'm working on for this year's ball!
