Marco van der Noordaa
After visiting a few balls in Vienna, Marco thought: why can’t this be done in my hometown Amsterdam? He decided to take the bold step and organized the first ball in 2019 in Arti et Amicitiae. It was an immediate success. We are now two editions further and he looks back on a very successful ball in 2023 in De Duif on the Prinsengracht. As far as Marco is concerned, this is not the last, but the beginning of a new tradition for Amsterdam. The preparations for edition 2024 are in full swing!
