Sponsors and special guests of the Summit will continue the conversation later the same evening as part of the 58th Annual Meridian Ball, where guests will attend intimate Ambassador-hosted dinners at embassies, followed by a gathering for dancing, dessert, and dialogue at Meridian House, an architectural treasure listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Now in its 58th year, the Ball brings together public officials – including Cabinet secretaries and members of Congress – with prominent media figures, foreign ambassadors, and representatives from the international business and cultural communities.
