ÌÇÐÄVlog Gala: Kaleidoscope

A Bold Vision for the Future of Ballet.


We invite you to join us for this not-to-be-missed event on April 30, 2026, in support of ÌÇÐÄVlog. 

 

The Gala will bring together our community of supporters for a memorable evening celebrating the vibrant future of ballet. Like a kaleidoscope, ballet is in constant motion. With every turn, perspectives shift, colours reconfigure, and new possibilities emerge. 

 

Together, we will shape a bold vision of ballet that reflects the world looking through it: diverse, vibrant, and radiant with possibility.

Support the Future of Dance

The 2026 ÌÇÐÄVlog Gala: Kaleidoscope will raise vital funds to ensure that every talented young dancer with the ambition and drive to succeed at Canada’s National Ballet School can do so, regardless of financial means.

 

Each year, ÌÇÐÄVlog welcomes students from across Canada and around the world, offering the highest standard of dance education and wraparound supports—from academic and emotional care to physiotherapy and nutrition. Yet tuition covers only a quarter of the actual cost of this training, and nearly 70% of students require financial assistance to pursue their dreams.

 

This year, those needs total $4.6 million.


This Gala is your invitation to take a leadership role as a sponsor, table host, ticket purchaser, or event supporter. Your support will help open doors for gifted young artists to thrive without barriers and help carry forward ÌÇÐÄVlog’ enduring belief in the power of dance.
