Montreal Gala


GALA MOTIONBALL MONTRÉAL 2023

Maison Alcan – 18 novembre

REDONNER À LA COMMUNAUTÉ EST UNE CAUSE DE CÉLÉBRATION, ET NOUS ORGANISONS QUELQUES-UNES DES MEILLEURES ! 

Pour la toute première fois, Motionball organise un Bal Masqué, un somptueux gala à thème vénitien au profit des Jeux Olympiques Spéciaux.

Le 18 novembre, au cœur du Mille Carré de Montréal, nous transformerons l’historique Maison Alcan (1188, rue Sherbrooke Ouest) et vous transporterons à l’époque de Venise au XVe siècle.

Nous accueillerons plus de 350 invités, y compris des athlètes locaux des Jeux Olympiques Spéciaux, pour une soirée de festivités inoubliables, de philanthropie et de performances éblouissantes!

Vous aurez l’occasion de profiter des rafraîchissements à volonté toute la soirée grâce à un bar ouvert soigneusement sélectionné. Vous serez émerveillés par les talents des meilleurs artistes et DJ locaux. En fin de soirée, des dégustations tardives du Café Amea (par l’équipe derrière le Ristorante Beatrice) régaleront vos papilles. Une merveilleuse occasion pour rencontrer certains des incroyables athlètes des Jeux Olympiques Spéciaux soutenus par ce Bal Masqué. La soirée s’annonce des plus festives!

Les billets sont en vente au prix de 250 $, avec un reçu fiscal de don de 150 $. Procurer vos billets sur mball.ca/montreal.

Le code vestimentaire est cravate noir avec votre meilleur masque vénitien. Ne vous inquiétez pas, nous fournirons des masques à ceux qui n’en ont pas.

L’atmosphère de Venise à votre portée!

POURQUOI VOTRE SUPPORT EST IMPORTANT

En achetant un billet, vous offrez à nos amis d’Olympiques Spéciaux Québec les resources financières nécessaires pour qu’un plus grand nombre d’athlètes présentant une déficience intellectuelle puissent avoir accès à plus de programmes de santé et à des activités sportives hebdomadaires et encadrées tout au long de l’année.

Cet événement permet non seulement de sensibiliser au mouvement d’Olympiques Spéciaux, mais aussi de créer un environnement sûr et inclusif où les personnes avec et sans déficience intellectuelle peuvent interagir, nouer des amitiés durables et, en fin de compte, créer des communautés plus inclusives.

OPPORTUNITÉS DE COMMANDITE

Le Gala est l’occasion de mettre votre marque sur la carte sociale et culturelle de Montréal. C’est aussi une récompense avec conscience pour vos associés et clients, ainsi qu’une opportunité de réseauter avec des dirigeants d’entreprise et des VIP partageant les mêmes valeurs.

Les commanditaires et les VIP bénéficieront d’un accès anticipé au Gala pour un cocktail exclusif avec des hors-d’œuvre gastronomiques, des spectacles sur scène et une rencontre avec les incroyables athlètes d’Olympiques spéciaux Québec!

Pour plus d’informations sur nos opportunités de parrainage commandite, contactez Anthony Colonna ou Riccardo Zerbino !
