ADDITIONAL FAQ
Q. Can I bring Glitter?
Only bring glitter that is in body paint form as any extra magic will create additional costs that may prevent the event from happening again.
Q. Dress Code? Can I have some ideas?
Get creative and create your own fantasy for the night, however the booths are small and so is the venue so keep this in mind while creating!
Q. Will I be expected to join in audience participation?
No. Our creatures are there to add atmosphere and no one will be put on the spot to interact in front of guests unless it is previously arranged.
Q. Do I have to dress up?
If you are stuck for an idea on costume and would like to attend for an unique night out, formal dress is suggested. For added mystery why not add a mask?
Q. Is Body Paint an acceptable costume?
Always! All Genders are welcome to wear body paint!
Q. Can I be bare foot?
Unfortunately no. Goblins tend to drop glasses and smash a few bottles when The Goblin Ball takes off. It's required you wear shoes for the occasion. This year we will be on a boat so flats are advised.

How to Get Involved!
Create Your own Character!
It’s quite exciting. We encourage people who wish to get the most of their night to create a character with a back story. Use your character and your ideas to create
What mystery can I solve on the night?
The mysterious Jaggies has returned to break the Enola Charm of the Ice Queen. Through clues and careful deduction this is a fantastic way for you to place wagers with your friends on who you think Jaggies real persona is, and maybe win a trinket or two. We have trading cards to collect and trinkets to trade but the Goblin Ball story Teller will be there with pages from Goblin Ball history to help you keep up to date. Use the clues and beat your friends! Place bets with new friends and call up the debts at the end of the night.
I want to represent a certain kingdom or fraction that exists in the Goblin Ball mythology. Would that work?
What an amazing way to enter the world of the Goblin Ball! We would love you to dress up as part of our previous kingdoms! See below for some amazing ideas!
My character is attending The Goblin Voyage to complete their own quest. Can you work it into the story for the evening?
If you have your own personal quests why not see if a guest will help you? Bribing works wonderfully, but make sure it doesn't disrupt the the event. We have a few secrets on the night so why not ask around?
My Character really needs to see a main character!
Approach them! They will love it, and you can learn if there is something that needs to be done before you can talk.
ARMOUR! I must protect myself from dragons and rogues! Can I bring my own sword too?
All armour and weaponry must be LARP safe & must be sheathed at all times. The Goblin Ball is a place to match wits not swords. Those found duelling will be dealt with accordingly.
