The programme
Your story, your speakers and the moment that moves the room to give.

Live auction or paddle raise
Every table can see the stage, so every bid feels like part of the show.
Everything a fundraiser needs
Your committee focuses on the cause. We handle the room, the dinner and the timing.
Room for the programme
A 30 ft stage for speakers, auctioneers, videos and entertainment.
Silent auction space
Tables for displays along the room, near the bar where guests linger.
Plated or family-style
Served to every table at once, so the programme starts on time.
Full bar service
Open, cash or drink tickets, with signature cocktails for sponsors.
A room that matches the cause
Your colours, your sponsors and your story, built into the room.
We design décor and lighting around your theme, from classic black and gold to bold brand colours, with space for sponsor signage, a step-and-repeat for photos and a stage dressed for the moment you ask the room to give.
Gala questions
Do you work with non-profits?
Yes. Many of the galas we host raise money for local causes. Ask us about weekday and off-season dates to stretch your budget.
Can we bring our own auctioneer and AV?
Of course. The stage is ready for your auctioneer, screens and entertainment, and our coordinator plans the run of show with them.
Is there space for sponsor displays?
Yes, around the room, at the entrance and on stage.
