Awesomeness. But also a bit of sadness. The former because this sounds like a rather delightful evening; the latter because it's the last in the series of summer-time late night openings at the Enchanted Palace.
One-time palace resident Peter the Wild Boy (according to Wikipedia, a "mentally handicapped Hanoverian of unknown parentage") is throwing the party, and as you might imagine it's choc-a-bloc with madness and assorted oddball fun-times.
Basically it's a big masked ball, but with costumed characters, unexpected encounters, origami making, and a some thoroughly enchanting dancing through the night.
