The 2025 McKean McGregor Gala Ball was a night to remember, bringing together 950 guests for an evening of glamour, generosity, and community spirit. Now in its fourth year, the event once again raised vital funds for the Cancer Wellness Centre at Bendigo Health, with this year’s efforts contributing a remarkable $252,820.02 - taking the overall fundraising total to more than $930,000.
Held in a spectacular Red Energy Arena, the evening featured a Major Auction conducted by the talented McKean McGregor auctioneers, alongside a silent auction and raffle that drew widespread support from attendees and local businesses. Guests were treated to stunning live performances, including the elegant sounds of violinist Evangeline Victoria and the high-energy entertainment of the ever-popular Baker Boys Band.
The sold-out event was a true showcase of what makes the Bendigo community so special - its generosity, warmth, and commitment to supporting local health services. We’re proud to share some of the highlights from the night in the gallery that follows, capturing the energy, style, and heart behind this important annual event.
