The Indian Chamber of Commerce in Korea (ICCK) will hold its ICCK Diwali Ball 2017 at the Conrad Seoul Hotel on Nov. 11.
Themed “Flavors of India,” the ICCK invites guests to a colorful black-tie event to celebrate the Hindu festival of lights.
The evening promises Indian cuisine, lively entertainment and a dance performance by Bollywood Troupe flown in from India.
Raffle prizes include air tickets, holidays, spa weekends and restaurant vouchers.
“It will also be a fine networking opportunity since we have a who’s who of guests from government, diplomatic and the corporate world,” the event organizer said.
One of the most popular festivals of Hinduism, Diwali spiritually signifies the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, knowledge over ignorance and hope over despair.
The venue is the Grand Ballroom on the third floor of the Conrad Seoul, and the evening begins at 6:30 p.m.
The entrance fee is 200,000 won for members and 220,000 won for nonmembers.
To RSVP, email events@indochamkorea.org by Thursday.
Founded in January 2010, the ICCK’s mission is to assemble the trade and business communities of India and Korea under a common platform to contribute to the development of bilateral business for the economic progress of both nations.
