Join us for a vibrant evening filled with music, magic, mayhem – and a few fantastic surprise acts along the way! We’re pulling out all the stops to make this our most fabulous night yet. This time even more unforgettable than last year.

A full evening of dazzling entertainment – and a few magical surprises!

As an independent charity, SEACC relies on the passion, generosity, and energy of our community — amazing people like you. Every ticket, every cheer, and every moment of support helps us continue to offer creative classes, inclusive events, and a welcoming space for all.
