Subscription Ball History

Bush Music Club Subscription Balls

2004 was The Bush Music Club's Golden Jubilee. One of the major and ongoing events of the Club is the holding of the Annual Subscription Ball.

The Bush Music Club Subscription Balls were started in 1978 and there have been more than 25 Balls since then. In recent years, certainly, these Balls have been fairly sophisticated dance events; the balls from 1988 to 1994 had no walkthroughs or calls and the balls from 1998 onwards have had calls only. Practices have been run in Sydney and more recently in Maitland, Newcastle and the Central Coast so that the dancers could learn the dances and therefore be confident and relaxed on the night. Dancers have come from as far afield as Canberra, Victoria and Queensland to attend. Many of the recent balls have had particular themes and many have had the title "Colonial" Ball - indicating that all (or at least most) of the dances were from the Australian Colonial period (finishing with Federation in 1901).

We have put together the first 25 Subscription Ball programmes for your interest - you may well be surprised to see the number of dances and the variety over the years! Click on any title below to see the programme for that year (in program order except where noted) and see also the combined alphabetical list of all the dances (including the years when they were on Subscription Ball programmes).
