LIFE BALL 2012 VIP PACKAGE (WITH STEELE LUXURY TRAVEL)
One of the most exclusive and high-profile charity events on the international social scene, the Life Ball is an extravagant, flamboyant and wildly popular annual event, supported and attended by statesmen and superstars, all in aid of raising money and awareness for HIV/AIDS sufferers and campaigns.
To date the Life Ball has raised more than $21 million, helping an important cause via a lavish and glamorous evening of music, drinks and dancing, lit up by a megawattage of star power. The only way to arrive at this exclusive party – a mere 3,780 tickets for which are released each year – is in true VIP style, courtesy of Steele Luxury Travel’s elite package.
Those in the US will enjoy business class flights to Vienna, which include an on-board private chef and speciality Viennese coffee tastings; alternatively guests can choose to travel in their own jets and meet up with Steele once in the city. Upon arrival, guests transfer in style to their base at the luxury boutique Ring Hotel, and are whisked off for two quintessential Viennese days of coffee and pastry tasting, dinner at stylish gourmet restaurants, a city tour and drinks at glamorous bars, culminating in the Life Ball 2012 on the Saturday evening. Expect the flamboyant opening outside the majestic city hall to include a star-packed fashion show, showcasing the hottest names on the international couture scene. Expect outrageous costumes (the 2012 theme is ‘Fire – Fight the Flames of Ignorance!’, and ball-goers have no qualms about being as glitzy and ostentatious as possible), performances from musical legends, a glamorous international star compère (past hosts have included Janet Jackson), and the sight of VIPs as diverse as Bill Clinton and Whoopi Goldberg getting down to some serious partying. Your ticket will include red carpet access, as well as the option to purchase all the hottest VIP extras, such as a ticket to an exclusive pre-Life-Ball dinner hosted by President Clinton – whose charitable foundation is one of the fundraiser’s beneficiaries.
Your Life Ball experience is rounded off with an indulgent morning-after brunch party at one of the hippest spots in the city – but that’s not all. If you still have an appetite for stylish travel and fun after the previous night’s revelry, Dane Steele will whisk you to Prague – one of the most romantic and beautiful cities in Europe – for two nights at an exclusive five-star hotel, and three days of luxury, fine dining and wonderful sightseeing. And as Steele Luxury Travel specialises in truly bespoke experiences, your trip ends when you say it does; Dane can assist with arranging further European adventures after Vienna and Prague, or you can jet home in style for some well-earned rest.
