Our History...
Since its inception on New Year’s Day in 1868, the Clinton Annual Ball has been a cherished tradition in Clinton, British Columbia. Initially hosted at the Clinton Hotel by Mary and Joseph Smith, the event quickly became an anticipated social occasion in the region. As the years went by, the Ball evolved – from week-long celebrations with attendees showcasing gowns ordered from global fashion hubs, to resilient gatherings enduring through wars and demographic shifts. Now, spanning over 150 years, the Ball continues to be a night where the community comes together to dance and celebrate its rich history.
