It’s not too late to snap up your tickets to one of the biggest social events on the Sleapy’s Foundation calendar.
The organisation’s annual Gala Ball brings the community together for an incredible evening of connection, celebration and fundraising.
And, in 2026, NBN personalities Adam Murray and Montanna Clare will host the black-tie function at NEX on Saturday 18 April from 6pm to 11.30pm.
“It’s always a popular occasion,” charity founder Peter Sleap said.
“That’s because every guest, supporter and partner plays an important role to create a meaningful impact.
“Funds raised will help support people and families in the region by providing vital assistance, resources and opportunities for those facing hardship.
“This year’s theme is Every Piece Matters.
“It’s timely as it reflects the power of community where each act of support contributes to something special.
“While the event’s an opportunity to raise money for a great cause, it’s also a chance to have some fun.
“There’ll be music, exiting performances, dancing and plenty of laughs, as well as ‘live’ and silent auctions, and a raffle, with a wide range of fantastic prizes up for grabs.
“You don’t want to miss it.”
Tickets – which include a three-course meal, beverage package and entertainment – are available online at www.sleapysfoundation.com.au/events/sleapys-foundation-gala-ball/
It’s the start of a busy period for the foundation.
Sleapy’s will also stage a special high-fashion screening of The Devil Wears Prada 2, starring Meryl Streep and Anne Hathway, at Event Cinemas Kotara on Wednesday 6 May from 5.45pm.
“This isn’t just a movie night,” Mr Sleap said.
“We’re taking over Gold Class to enhance everyone’s cinematic experience.
“It’s an evening of luxury, style and, most importantly, extraordinary impact.
“For $60, you’ll receive a plush seat, fresh buttery popcorn and a glass of bubbles on arrival to kick off the festivities.”
