St. John’s has never experienced a Valentine’s night quite like this.
The Velvet Valentine Ball is an immersive, elegant, and joy-filled celebration created for those who appreciate quality, music, atmosphere, and unforgettable moments. This is the first of what will become a beloved tradition — a night where we dress up, lean into the magic of community, and celebrate love in all its forms.
What makes this night truly extraordinary:
A red carpet welcome with professional photography — your star moment, captured forever.
Justin Nurse performing as Michael Bublé with his band 709 — delivering the smooth vocals, big-band energy, and timeless charm that make this style of music unforgettable.
A ballroom dance demo by the incomparable Jim Russell of Jolly Roger Enterprises — plus a dance lesson before the concert, so everyone can step onto the floor with confidence and flair.
The stunning voice of Kelsey Downer, adding soul, romance, and emotional magic to the evening.
And so much more — surprises, atmosphere, and live performances unlike anything you’ve seen before.
This is live music with heart.
It’s dancing, laughing, celebrating, and feeling alive.
It’s a night for couples, for singles, for friends, and for anyone who wants to celebrate love — love for life, love for making it through the day-to-day, love for connection, and love for moments that remind you why saying “yes” to going out was the right choice.
Hosted at the iconic Sheraton Hotel, the evening blends luxury, sophistication, and a once-in-a-year sense of occasion.
Whether you arrive with someone special or step onto the red carpet solo, you’ll be part of the very first Velvet Valentine Ball — a night destined to become one of St. John’s most anticipated annual traditions.
Tickets are limited.
When they’re gone, they’re gone — and trust us, you’ll want to be able to say you were there for the very first one.
