The event, called the Big Night Out Gala, will feature a “Retro Prom” show, with guests invited to wear their favourite fashions from their teenage years or any previous decade. The night will feature food, games, and dancing to classic hits. Advertising for the gala hints:
“While we can’t spill all the details just yet, let’s just say you might want to start thinking about your best throwback looks, your favourite hits from decades past, and a night full of nostalgic fun that will have everyone talking.”
Gala events such as this use tools like brochure printing and speeches to help promote the cause as well as recognize sponsors, volunteers and other contributors. Big Night Out will also feature live and silent auctions and raffles featuring items provided by the community.
All funds raised through the gala will go towards the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Centre Wellington organization. The chapter helps connect young people with mentors and recreational activities in Guelph and nearby cities.
The 2026 Big Night Out “Retro Prom” event will take place at the Ariss Valley Golf and Country Club in Guelph on the evening of March 28.
