        History and modernity will connect in the residence of the Radziwill noble family, and the guests will make a journey back in time, and will experience the scale and luxury of an ancient court ball. The castle will welcome the long-awaited with bright torches, riding knights, red carpet and champagne. The guests will also attend an auction to raise funds for the restoration of the Castle of Novogrudok, the specimen of the historical and cultural heritage of the 16th century. 
       The spacious halls of the castle - Golden, Theatrical, Hetman, Hunter and others -will host varied events. Guests will be able to enjoy small mini-performances based on the novels by Belarusian authors including Ursula Radziwill, games and other events.
