The year of 1849: Where the golden streets in the Land of Dreams were spotted out West. Hundreds of thousands of society’s eccentrics and outcastes clamored for their stakes, creating a colorful world of stories, characters, sin, and parties.

The ‘49er Ball is back! A Jackson Hole staple since 1896, live out the past in costume, find an excuse to dance like it’s 1849, gamble away the suspenders off your back, and watch theatrical characters play out their worst sins. Theatre company Riot Act, Inc. hosts the 2020 ‘49er ball Saturday, February 8 at The Virginian Lodge Ballroom. Activities include dance lessons, a live band (Tasha and the Goodfellows), silent auction, gambling for donations, a cash bar, all the vitals you can eat, pop up performances, costume contest, and more!

And, of course, vote for your favorite 49er Ball Royalty! This year’s contestants include: "Reckless Texas" Jill King, Crystal "Calamity" Wright, "Lucky" Lin Heffner, Cory “the kid” Carlson, Benny "Badass" Wilson, Zachariah “MoneyBags” Turpin.
