THEME & STYLE
The Year of the Dragon soars in as societal shifts are hatching many new possibilities. As a solar eclipse aligns, Horned Ball challenges you to consider all mythical creatures, ancient magic and birthing your biggest dreams. Come as a baby dragon, budding basilisk, halfling hydra or fledgling falkor. Be anything that comes from an egg — or is capable of fertilizing one… In horns! At every Horned Ball, any form of costumed creativity is encouraged as the animals wake from winter slumber to frolic and dance at NYC’s most legendary spring bacchanal.

ABOUT HORNED BALL & KOSTUME KULT
Horned Ball is the longest running event of Kostume Kult, a non-profit association supporting costume art, street theater and big fun while bringing wonderful people together. Horned Ball #20 is a fantastical springtime bacchanal and Burning Man project fundraiser where the animals shake off winter slumber with much art, interactive activities and dancing in multiple rooms. All KK events are participatory theater where the guests are the players and where we take any artistic license that makes things more fun or ridiculous.
