ICON’S GALORE BALL

The Icon's Galore Ball by Yukiko Saint Laurent, was created as an event that pays hommage.

A tribute to Icons, Legends & Pioneers of Ballroom, as well as key figures of the LGBTIQ+ community that advocated for equal rights of marginalized and stigmatized groups especially during the AIDS crisis, saving lives and offering help, guidance voices, spaces and advocacy for their community. 

The major event at Berlin’s SchwuZ, had reached its maximum capacity of guests even before the event officially started.

Due to its popularity and success, Sophie-Yukiko got nominated in the category "Ball Of The Year" for the European OTY awards, an annual Award ceremony in Paris, that rewards excellence among the Ballroom Community.
