The Winter Ball

In its 39th year, the annual black tie event is one of the most prominent and well-attended galas in Palm Beach. A delectable cocktail hour in the Mediterranean Courtyard starts the evening. Then, the affair progresses to the Venetian Ballroom where a 3-course meal is followed by a live auction and dancing. Club Members also entertain guests with a special performance.

Proceeds from The Winter Ball will support Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County, which offers 13 Club sites. The Clubs provide services during non-school hours, as well as summer camp opportunities, to more than 9,300 youth ages 6 to 18.
