Step into the most momentous event in our history as we re-create the magic and excitement of the Millennium Times Square celebrations in New York. It was our greatest privilege to be invited to design and create the Times Square Millennium Ball to officially welcome in the New Millennium on New Years Eve in New York.

In a specially constructed room with a replica of the ball itself , you have the chance to experience the overwhelming levels of crowd excitement which was enjoyed by over one million people who were in Times Square on that magical night.
