On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the inauguration of the André mansion, the Musée Jacquemart-André is offering an immersive evening in the form of a grand costume ball. Throughout the evening, participants are invited on a journey through time to discover the great moments in the life of the couple Édouard André and Nélie Jacquemart, around a lavish, animated cocktail dinner. Elegance, surprises and refinement set the rhythm of this immersion into the heart of the Belle Époque.
For this night outside of time, you are invited to wear a costume in order to fully immerse yourself in the atmosphere of a prestigious 19th-century soirée, recreated through a period reconstruction.
The central figure of the evening, Nélie Jacquemart, who painted the portrait of Édouard André in 1872 before marrying him in 1881, is among the guests. Throughout the route, you are invited to find her among them, while animations punctuate the evening and reveal the secrets of the mansion.
