The 11th Annual St. Jude Orlando Gala: A Night of Dreams will take place on Saturday, February 20, 2027.
This year's theme, A Night of Dreams, celebrates the dreams that fuel the St. Jude mission—from Danny Thomas' dream of a world where no child dies in the dawn of life, to the dreams of patients and families facing childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases, and the dreams of researchers working tirelessly to find cures and save lives.
The evening will feature a cocktail reception, seated dinner, entertainment, silent and live auctions, a Give to Live fundraising program, and powerful stories shared by a keynote speaker and St. Jude patient speaker. Together, we will honor the dreams that inspire hope and help ensure that St. Jude can continue its lifesaving mission for children everywhere.
All proceeds from this event benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, where families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live.
