The Te Awamutu Rose Ball will be held at the Waipā Workingmen's Club on June 18 at 8pm. This show is proudly brought to you by Haus of Blaster in conjunction with Waipā Creative Communities.

Piper Blaster's inspiration for this event was heavily influenced by Marie Antoinette and a recent costumiers ball they attended in Rotorua as a creative performer herself.

"My aim is to create an annual event that everyone can attend and have a good time," says Piper Blaster.

Waipā Workingmen's Club will be decorated with roses to match Te Awamutu's name as "Rose Town". There will be a feature wall of roses for those wanting to snap a picture.

The ball itself will feel like stepping into the 18th century, with Austrian waltz music to set the mood, featuring tables decorated with centrepieces.
