The ballroom has been magically fashioned into a sort of ampitheatre, the dancefloor obviously being the middle bit (I don't know ampitheatre technical terms okay?) with the seating around the edge for those not dancing. There are illusory beasts - mundane and magical - that occasionally prowl the dancefloor. At one end there's an opulent Roman styled fountain but instead of water it's champagne. Glasses levitate in the air nearby.
Outside there's a miniature Vesuvius (it's slightly taller than the house but obviously small next to the real volcano) that will slowly erupt throughout the evening. The lava is molten chocolate that's been enchanted to look red. There's a table outside with a selection of fruits and skewers for dipping in the 'lava'. It is unnecessarily hot though and the closer you dip to the volcano, the more likely you are to give yourself a third degree burn. Eating the lava chocolate will weaken the consumer's impulse control - it takes 15-30 minutes to take effect depending on a person's metabolism and it has a cumulative effect - the more you eat, the more of an effect you'll get. The effect wears off like alcohol.
There's a modestly sized maze with statues dotted throughout which look suspiciously like the people of Pompeii... At the center of the maze is a columned building inside of which is a Roman bath. It's unclear whether it's intended merely as a decoration or for actual use.
Throughout the party, little flakes of ash will be falling both inside and out - it starts very light and increases in volume as the night goes on.
