Royal Winnipeg Ballet Annual Fundraising Gala

Dirty Dancing Gala

On behalf of the Royal Winnipeg Ballet thank you to everyone who participated in our major fundraising event of the season.   The Dirty Dancing Gala was a great success – selling out in record time! Guests were treated to a delicious dinner, unique silent auction items and incredible dance performances. 

Proceeds from our annual Gala enable the RWB to present the high quality performances that our patrons have come to expect and enjoy.

Please mark April 17, 2009 on your calendar and join us for next year’s Gala. You won’t believe what we have in store for you next!
