On Saturday, February 14, 2026, Heartland-WIFT (Women in Film & Television) will host a Valentine’s Day Regency Ball, a fundraising gala at the historic Grove Theater in Oak Ridge, Tennessee (123 Randolph Road, Oak Ridge) from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. EST.

This event is open to the public and will feature an enchanting evening of music, Regency-style ballroom dancing, light refreshments, and entertainment.

Couples are encouraged to attend, but partners are not required. As seen in Bridgerton, Regency dance is a form of social dance where the assembled group enjoys a variety of dances and continuously switches partners.

Suzanne Ford will serve as the Mistress of Ceremonies of the Regency Ball and will also serve as the dance instructor, leading the assembled group in this delightful and elegant social dance.

Felicia Andes, President of HEARTLAND-WIFT, comments, “We have created this Regency-inspired Valentine’s Day Ball to provide a romantic night out filled with music, dancing, and community. Attendees are encouraged to dress in Bridgerton-style attire or fancy dress and black tie to compliment the festive atmosphere. We also recommend that people bring a separate pair of soft-soled shoes for dancing, if possible.”

Advance tickets are available at $25 per person or $40 per couple. At the event, tickets will be $35 per person and $50 per couple at the door. Tickets are required and can be obtained by visiting https://heartland-wift.org/events-calendar/.
