In it’s eleventh year Variety’s Annual Themed Ball is commemorating the 100 year anniversary of the Titanic.
Variety’s Titanic Ball will be a themed extravaganza taking our guests back to the year 1912 where they will enjoy a stunning three course dinner and quality Tim Adams Wines. Guests will party the night away to fantastic entertainment; opening with Grace Bawden, described as one of Australia's greatest operatic discoveries, showtime with the House of Gaga and Audio Box packing the dance floor to round off the night.
As always there are incredible auction items for you to choose from, including a luxury Greek Island cruise aboard a 100ft private yacht, a fantastic furniture package and over one hundred quality items in the silent auction. For more information and to view other auction items click here.
Since the inaugural event, Variety in the Outback in 2002, the annual Variety themed ball has raised an amazing $1.53million net
2011 Variety Annual Themed Ball
Adelaide’s premiere Winter event was held on Friday night 3rd June and themed Variety's Night in Paris. This year marked the 10 year anniversary of this annual ball with a record attendance of 1,576 guests and an amazing $215,000 net raised.
The Adelaide Convention Centre looked like it had literally been transported to Paris and all who attended made a huge effort to look Parisian! Guests were treated to a star studded line up of entertainment with the Lisa Edwards Band, (flying in on Friday night especially for the event), unusualist Raymond Crowe, Motown Connection and more.
One generous group purchased at the auction, a luxury Mediterranean Cruise for 8 people on a private yacht, for an astonishing $60,000. We thank Gordon Pickard for his amazingly generous donation and the bidders for their contribution to enrich the lives of South Australian children.
The event Chair, Peter Curtis said he and his committee were thrilled by the event’s success, this year raising $215,000 net and taking the total raised over the past decade to in excess of $1.5million net.
This event would not be possible without the generous support of Adelaide Convention Centre Chief Executive Alec Gilbert and his team, who was recognized with a presentation on the night.
