Barristers' Ball

Last updated

The Barristers' Ball is an annual event held at most law schools in common law countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. [1] [ additional citation(s) needed ] It is generally a formal/semi-formal affair, often near the end of the academic year, conducted by the institution's Student Bar Association as a school-wide gathering. At some law schools, it is referred to as a "law school prom," given its timing during the school year.
