Throughout the event they will be serving up wine and cheese, a variety of crepes, authentic Italian pizza straight from a wood burning fire and even a special Louisiana food stall.

The night time event will focus on the glamorous side of carnivals, with inspiration coming from the masquerade balls associated with the world famous Venice Carnival.

This 18+ event will have many artists performing, including Mischa and His Merry Men, with Mischa being able to boast Si Genaro, a contestant from the hit TV talent show The Voice as one of his Merry Men.

There will also be DJ sets from both students and professionals and burlesque dancers.
