Potentate's Ball

Get ready to step back in time at the 2026 Orak Potentates Ball, where we invite you to channel your inner gangster for an unforgettable night themed Gangsters & Molls. From Gatsby to Soprano and Corleone to Gotti, guests are encouraged to dress the part for this semi-formal affair. While tuxedos are always appropriate and fezzes are optional, fedoras are highly expected for the evening.

The festivities take place on May 2nd, 2026, at the Blue Chip Casino in Michigan City, Indiana. The evening begins at 5:00 PM with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres, followed by a formal dinner at 6:00 PM. Guests can choose between a Ribeye Steak, Chicken Scallopini, or a Charred Cauliflower Steak for vegetarians, all served with salad, bread, and dessert. A dedicated kid’s plate featuring chicken fingers, fries, and fruit is also available.

The celebration continues from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM with dancing to the sounds of The Dirty Buoys. Admission is $75.00 per person and $35.00 for children. Your ticket includes access to an open bar from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, with a cash bar available for the remainder of the night.

For those staying overnight, discounted hotel reservations can be made by calling 888-879-7111 and asking for the Orak Shrine rate, or by visiting the Blue Chip Casino website and entering group code OS2026.
