ATHENS, WV (WVNS) — The sixth annual President’s Ball, the Moonlit Masquerade, will be held at Concord University on February 24, 2024.

The masquerade ball will be from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on Saturday, February 24, 2024 on the third floor Ballroom of the Jean & Jerry L. Beasley Student Center. The ball, hosted by the Concord University Foundation, will be a way to celebrate the founding of Concord University, and money from the event will go toward the Concord Fund.
With the theme of the ball being a masquerade, formal attire with some mystery is recommended for guests. Although masks are welcome at the event, including hand-held masks, full face masks cannot be worn. Guests can wear black tie or evening gowns, but they are also welcome to add extra flair and creativity to their outfits with items such as accessories and masks.
Entertainment at the ball will be provided by Nick Scott, who started his journey in entertainment in September 2002. He has been on radio stations, as well as performing with artists like Miranda Lambert, Flo Rida, Blake Shelton, Salt-N-Pepa, Earth Wind & Fire, and more.
