ABOUT THE EVENT

Almost 632 years ago, in 1393; Charles VI of France held the first masquerade gala in the world. Since then the Masquerade Gala began as part of Europe’s carnival season. Less high society and more cirque du célébration, villagers would gather in masks and costumes to take part in elaborate pageants and glamorous processions. Quickly spreading across France like wildfire, some of the most notorious balls of the day would be held to celebrate Royal Entries: the grand occasion of welcoming kings and queens into their cities. LET US WELCOME OUR KINGS AND QUEENS TO LA VIE!

What better way to welcome 2026 than with an ALL-INCLUSIVE party in the stunning elegance of La Vie? The resplendent grandeur, one of most dramatic spaces at The Wharf!

Join us for an enchanting New Year’s Eve filled with breathtaking views, lively entertainment, dancing, and midnight surprises. Be prepared to be awe-inspired as you revel in the decadence and splendor of the night. The stage is set for a timelessly magical New Year’s Eve experience like never seen before in DC.

DRESS CODE : We expect gentlemen to range from creative black tie to tuxedo, while ladies range from stylish cocktail attire to flax dresses and gowns. Bonus points for a Masquerade.
