Steampunk Ball to celebrate Sesquicentennial
The first ever Nevada Day Steampunk Ball, a costume fundraiser for ages 18+, is at the Carson Nugget Ballroom Oct. 31, from 7 p.m to midnight. The event’s theme combines the formality of old-time nostalgia with a light-hearted science fiction twist, and includes high-energy dance music by Nevada’s own Rock-N-Roll Rebels, a no-host bar (for those 21+), sweet treats, and costume contest with prizes. Don't stress if you're having trouble coming up with Steampunk costume: consider dressing Victorian, western, or in the costume of your choosing.
Tickets are $25 per person, on sale online here or at the Nevada Day Store at 108 W. Telegraph St., Carson City, open 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Monday thru Wednesday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Thursday and Friday. Tickets purchased online can be picked up at the Nevada Day Office or from Will Call at the Carson Nugget on the day of the event.
