Roll up, roll up, the Mackay Mayor’s Charity Ball dazzled more than 400 guests on Saturday night with a vintage carnival theme that brought glamour, games, and generosity under one big top.
Held at the MECC, the night featured crowd favourites like graceful aerial performances, carnival stalls, a lively auction, and unforgettable performances from Sydney’s sparkling show The Diamonds and local legends Mango Junction.
Guests raved about the atmosphere, praising the event’s vibrant energy and meaningful cause. Funds raised will be shared equally between Grapevine Group and The Salvation Army’s Family Violence Service.
The total will be revealed, and cheques presented, at a special sponsor morning tea on Wednesday, 28 May.
This was one night where fun met fundraising in true style.
