Great Live Music for the 2017 Champagne Ball

The Ball • Oct 19, 2017

Local entertainment with a hint of Canadian content

Premium entertainment has been booked for the Champagne Ball to be held on Friday, November 17, 2017 at the Hilton Nagoya.

In keeping with the Ball’s tradition of celebrating the international community – centered around the United States, Canada, and Japan – our lineup draws on great local and U.S. talent delivering musical content that is relevant to Canada.

Canadian Jazz

While jazz music did not originate in Canada, the country has a diverse jazz scene that has given us the likes of Guy Lombardo and Oscar Peterson .

Honouring Canada’s jazz tradition, you will be serenaded in the foyer during the pre-event cocktail hour by local jazz pianist Mr. Testya Maki .

Later, Mr. Maki will join bassist Hiroyuki Okitsu and front-man, and trombone player, Don Gibson where The Don Gibson Trio will entertain you through dinner in the Oogi Ballroom.

We welcome back The Unit

We are super excited to have The Unit back this year to keep guests up and dancing. The Unit were just awesome last year, and they will be back with their exciting line up of popular modern dance tunes.

In keeping with the theme ( Maple & Mounties ), the boys have offered to include several well-known tunes by various Canadian artists.

Reserve your seats!

We hope you are as excited as we are about this fabulous lineup of great, professional talent, and we know you won’t be disappointed.

In addition to great live music, there will be …

Canadian-themed décor
pre-dinner hors d’oeuvres & bubbly
a premium buffet with a variety of Canadian delicacies
free-flowing drinks throughout the night
great raffle prizes

Anyone is welcome, but advanced reservations and payment are required. Don’t miss out!

The joint planning committee has typically consisted of a handful of leaders from the two organizations. But this is a community event open to anyone within and/or interested in the international community here in Nagoya. As such, we would like to invite members of that community to get involved in the planning.

We're still feeling the excitement that Elvis brought us with the 2018 Champagne Ball. And, we wanted to keep the energy with another fun theme for 2019. We also recall how much fun we had at our very first themed Ball, in 2011, with a nostalgic trip back to the 1970's. So, we are excited to announce that for the 2019 Champagne Ball and Awards Evening , we are going Back to the Eighties !
