Russian balls in Australia have been held for many years and are one of the most significant events for representatives of the Russian community. This holiday of beauty, grace, grace and music unites the Russian-speaking population of Victoria and is carried out for maintaining continuity of traditions of national culture.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

The first ball was held in 1991. It was dedicated to the day of the Equal-to-the-Apostles Grand Duke Vladimir, and since then these balls have been named after St. Vladimir.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

Despite the fact that each new ball is sustained in a unique concept reflecting certain events in the life of society, the event is always\u00a0 luxurious and grandiose.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

St.Vladimir Ball<\/strong> is composed of an exquisite setting, ladies in beautiful long dresses, gallant cavaliers in tuxedos, fun, dancing and courage. A luxurious dinner is always served for guests and an official program is prepared that reveals the cultural aspects of the evening. Community leaders give speeches, honored awards are given. The preparation of the Ball requires significant costs – funds, time, effort, intelligence. However, the matter is worth it! The ball really reflects all the best that the local Russian community and their friends have to offer.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

While it is not always possible to hold St. Vladimir\u2019s Ball every year, we endeavour to maintain this great tradition because of Russians\u2019 pride in their culture and their eagerness to showcase it to their community, other ethnic communities, and the Australian public in general.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
