The Event
Please join us for the 14th Annual Sydney Chocolate Ball, an elegant evening of everything chocolate! Hosted by Jamie Durie OAM, this extravagant night will feature world-class entertainment, a chocolate-inspired menu designed by celebrity chef Luke Mangan OAM, and fine champagne flowing. Join us as we “imagine” a future without FSHD—where possibilities are endless, and hope is as sweet as chocolate. You and your guests will enjoy a delicious Lindt chocolate 3-course meal, dazzling entertainment, and an evening of true decadence with philanthropic global impact. Traditionally a sold-out event, this is one gala dinner not to be missed!
