Although dozens of inaugural balls will be held next month to celebrate the election of Barack Obama, only 10 will actually be attended by the first couple, the Presidential Inaugural Committee stated Wednesday.

 

Six of the official balls will be held at the Washington Convention Center, with others at Union Station, the Washington Hilton, the National Building Museum and the DC Armory.      

However, the biggest parties this time may well be unofficial. MTV and BET are throwing televised parties, while the Creative Coalition will hold a gala to be headlined by Elvis Costello. Dionne Warwick is hosting the American Music Inaugural Ball.
