Within 48 hours practically all 500 tickets available at the 500th Anniversary Ball in June 2019 had been sold via our online application form!
After much publicity, the form went live at 6pm on Monday; by midnight 380 tickets had been booked! By Wednesday evening, the parents' allocation was sold out completely and by Thursday evening all 500 tickets had gone. This Black Tie ball to celebrate 500 years of King’s Bruton (1519-2019) will be held in marquees on Abbey Field and will involve a drinks and canapés reception, a three-course meal, entertainment throughout the evening and fireworks. 200 tickets have been allocated to Old Brutonians. 200 tickets are allocated to parents (past and present). 100 tickets are allocated to staff and governors (past and present). The School is very much looking forward to this momentous event as we celebrate our 500th Anniversary in 2019!
Events throughout the day (Saturday 15th June) such as the Service of Celebration, tour of the New Music School, Classic & Interesting Car Display, sports matches and tea can still be booked via the online form on the website here.
