Building Renovation Fundraiser for Riverlea Theatre, Hillcrest, Hamilton.
Our annual Masquerade Ball on Saturday the 21st of August, 2021 at 7.30pm is a key fundraiser to help towards the rebuild of the theatre.
This will be a fabulous evening which features “The Malcolm Barr Big Band” to dance to, and some other fun events throughout the evening to keep you entertained.
There will be Auctions, Quick Fire Raffles and Spot Prizes for the Best Dressed Male and Female, Best Mask, Best Dancer, Best Handmade Mask and Most Unique Mask.
There will be a photographer taking photos of your amazing attire. (Please note that if you don't want your photo used for future advertising, please let us know)
You can purchase a photo for a fee, which also goes towards making this Building Renovation a reality.
There will be a light supper, catered for by CaterPlus.
The Bar will be open and while it is only public prices on the night (no club pricing that night) we all know our public prices are extremely reasonable compared to other venues.
Tickets are $60 each and are available through iTicket at the below link:

Hope to see you there!
