Le Bon Ton Galant

By Le Bon Genre, we understand a weekend that celebrates the historical authenticity and elegance of bygone eras. To ensure that this gathering becomes an unforgettable and harmonious experience for all guests, we kindly request your observance of the following conventions and organizational deadlines.

Please refrain from wearing street shoes or trainers.
Light dance attire and footwear
(ballet slippers, dance sneakers, or jazz dance shoes).

• We most politely request that you maintain silence during the dance instructions and listen attentively to the explanations – even if you already consider yourself well-versed in the dance.
• Please always join the set at the bottom end and under no circumstances leave it while the dance is in progress.
• Keeping an attentive eye on the other dancers is an excellent means of grasping the flow of the dance and increasing your own confidence.
• In the spirit of gallantry, we ask the ladies to occasionally yield their partner to other ladies for a dance. Likewise, may the gentlemen devote their attention equally to all ladies of the company.

• So as not to disturb the historical atmosphere, mobile telephones must be strictly switched to silent (with the exception of the event management to ensure reachability).
• Please note that pets are not permitted in the ballroom.

• Ticket sales for the Rococo Weekend: To ensure the splendid execution of the workshop, we politely request your timely booking once advance sales commence on 15 November 2026. The prerequisite for the workshop to take place is a company of at least 20 participants by 1 February 2027.
• Culinary matters and individual expenses: Apart from the refreshing water provided during the dance course, we kindly ask you to note that all additional or individually ordered food and beverages (such as during the tavern gatherings) are to be settled directly by each guest.

Should the minimum number of participants, contrary to expectations, not be reached and the event have to be cancelled on our part, the fee paid will naturally be refunded to you in full and without deductions.
