"The theme of 'Brilliance in Motion' reflects both the extraordinary talent and creativity of the people and productions we honor at the Emmys, and the vibrant experience we’ve designed for this year’s Governors Ball,” said Governors Ball committee co-chair Halina Siwolop.
Expanding on the theme of swirling water in motion, the design features contoured ballroom architecture and furnishings arranged within a series of converging curves, enticing guests to mingle and explore. Adding further luster to the gala celebration, the ball will be bathed in a rich color palette of eggplant, magenta, red, and coral, with accents of "Emmy gold."
Event producer Cheryl Cecchetto of Sequoia Productions said, “The dynamic contours and synergetic elements are inspired by the collaboration of the many innovative fields of creative expertise within the television industry.” The ball team also includes Bright Event Rentals and Showpro.
Entertainment will include the dance troupes Radiance and Embodiment.
