This is the Official MySpace page for Les Temps des Vampires. The Grand Ball we present is a Gathering of all the Vampire Children of the world! Our Ball is held in New Orleans every year on the Friday close to Halloween. We have a theme every year based on the works of great authors of Vampire Literature and all of our guests are encouraged to become the character of their choosing. All types of costumes are welcome and elegant evening attire is also acceptable.
TRU BLOOD AND GOLD BALL this OCTOBER 30th! Special Guest Author CHARLAINE HARRIS!
It is that time of year when things really begin picking up and plans for Halloween weekend kick into high gear. Costumes are being made, lenses and fangs are on order, rooms are being reserved, and flights are being arranged. We are quickly approaching the time of our gathering! We are truly excited this year to be bringing you a party that blends two very different vampire worlds in an amazing and beautiful venue such as Republic New Orleans! The president and staff of Les Temps des Vampires/ARVLFC have worked night and day over these last few months to make this Halloween weekend one of great fun, high spirits, and unexpected thrills; we know that you will love your time with us!
The weekend begins on the evening of Thursday, October 29th with the Wine Tasting event, which this year includes a sampling of Absinthe. The Wine Tasting has for years been the introduction to the weekend and is a great way to meet up with friends in a relaxed setting before all of the activities get underway. Special guest Charlaine Harris, author of the Sookie Stackhouse novels, will be joining us that evening for fun and beverages. Tickets for the Wine Tasting are sold separately from the Les Temps des Vampires Ball and are AVAILABLE NOW!
On Friday, October 30th Les Temps des Vampires and the ARVLFC present the TRU BLOOD AND GOLD BALL at Republic New Orleans! Charlaine Harris will join us again that night as a special guest as will Gabrielle Faust, author of 'Eternal Vigilance'. The theme for this year's Ball is a blending of the world of the Vampire Chronicles as well as that of Sookie Stackhouse. The options for costumes and characters are now truly endless and we expect you all to show your creativity! Have fun with it! The night's entertainment includes music from Marc Gunn, the Kinky Tuscaderos, and Saints of Ruin. TICKETS ARE ON SALE NOW!
An after-party for the Ball is currently planned at The Dragon's Den by our friends from Endless Night.
On Saturday afternoon Charlaine will have a book signing at the Garden District Bookstore and we encourage all of you to get out there and show your support and appreciation!
On Saturday, Halloween Night, Endless Night XII: An Night in Versailles will be happening at the House of Blues and the party will start at midnight! Mingle with friends and party til dawn!
More events and activities are in the works so check back with us often to keep in the know!

At this moment, I'd be arriving back home from a deliciously decadent meal in the Quarter and deciding on what to wear for the ball soon to start in a few short hours. Please have a drink or two for me and I hope to make it there next year.
Saints Of Ruin are excited to be headlining the Tru Blood and Gold Ball this year. We go on at 1:00 am. But we will be at the Ball all night. And we want to meet all of you. Please, if you see one of us, do come over and say hello. Stop by our merch booth and pick up the new album "Nightmare", or the first album "Fairytale". Some shirts, candles,....We'd love to autograph anything you would like us to. We are all really looking forward to partying with all of you for DAYS. We will of course be attending Endless Night on Halloween. We're all very honored to be guests of Lady A. And we've been invited to House Of Shock on the 29th. Hope to see you there too.
