Black Tie Soiree 2026: The Masquerade

About the Campaign:

🎭 An Evening of Mystery, Glamour, and Dance Awaits You 🎭

Black Tie Soiree 2026: The Masquerade is Hackettstown's most elegant night of the year, hosted by the Hackettstown BID and Classic Ballroom Dance Studio at the stunning David's Country Inn. Don your finest attire, slip on your mask, and step into an evening designed to feel extraordinary from the very first moment.

On Wednesday, October 21, from 6–10 PM, guests are invited into a world of sophisticated black-tie glamour, elaborate masquerade masks, champagne, cocktails, dancing, and theatrical surprise. This is not your average night out — it is a full sensory experience crafted to delight, dazzle, and leave you talking about it for years.

Your evening begins with a welcome glass of champagne (for guests 21+), followed by an abundant spread of passed hors d'oeuvres, small plates, a sumptuous carving station, a pasta station, and delicious bites throughout the night. A cash bar will be available, with soft drinks and non-alcoholic beverages included for all guests.

A DJ will keep the dance floor alive all evening, with open dancing and unexpected moments of entertainment woven throughout the night. For those who want to be part of something truly unforgettable, ticket holders are invited to learn a special flash-mob-style group dance with Classic Ballroom Dance Studio. Four complimentary dance classes will be offered on Mondays at 7 PM at Classic Ballroom Dance Studio (Hastings Square, 470 Schooleys Mountain Rd), beginning September 28th. Participation is completely optional, but those who join in will be part of one of the evening's most spectacular moments.

Masquerade masks are required. Black-tie attire is strongly encouraged. Think tuxedos and gowns — the spirit is simply to dress elegantly and make the evening feel as extraordinary as it deserves to be.
