Red Carpet Gala | St. George Theatre

The St. George Theatre will present our first-ever Ring in the Spring Virtual Gala on Sunday, April 25 at 7PM! This exciting fundraiser will celebrate the community anchor that is the historic St. George Theatre in a number of ways:

Virtual Gala Video Presentation – A one-hour special that will feature a red carpet segment, a sneak peek at the latest renovation projects, and video messages from special star guests along with a musical performance. This virtual event is produced by Fuzz on the Lens Productions and will broadcast live on Facebook, YouTube, and our official website.
Online Auction – Patrons will have the opportunity to bid on rare and unique items while supporting the St. George Theatre, including autographed memorabilia, concert posters, original mezzanine theatre seats, and the classic neon “St. George” that adorned our marquee since the 1980s.
Electronic Journal – Sponsors and gala supporters will be recognized in a commemorative electronic journal which will be shared across social media channels, via email to over 60,000 patrons, and displayed on our website for one year.
“Sneak Peek” Private Theatre Tours – Gala supporters who donate $250 or more will have the chance to tour the beautiful new renovations made to the theatre, which will enhance both the fan and artist experience upon our grand reopening. Private tours will be scheduled the week of leading up to the gala (April 19-23).

Sponsors and guests who previously supported our Red Carpet Gala and Benefit Concert starring Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons will be invited to attend the Ring in the Spring Virtual Gala on April 25^th. Tickets for the Frankie Valli concert will be honored on Friday, October 22 at 8pm for a concert-only live experience.
