This year’s theme will be The 8th Kingdom, a medieval fantasy realm where an epic battle between good and evil rages. For centuries, the seven houses of the AmCham China Realm lived in harmony, until an 8th house arose that disturbed the balance of power. Whether you’re a knight of the realm, a member of the Night’s Watch, or a powerful queen, all are welcome to join in on the fantastical evening of pageantry, dance, and feasts of roast meats and dark ale in the Imperial Great Hall.
