Businesses and residents of Milton Keynes are invited to the Ball, to be held at the StadiumMK from 7pm with MC Trevor Marshall. The event will include a drinks reception and three-course dinner, along with musical entertainment in the form of the Five Star Swing - recognised as one of the most versatile and accomplished Jazz and Swing bands in the U.K. 

A unique Milton Keynes themed  auction will also be held on the night with all proceeds being split between the two charities.

In addition, a draw will be made for the winner of the rare and highly valuable, Enigma Egg that was specially-commissioned by the internationally renowned Fabergé family to commemorate the story of code breaking in World War II at Bletchley Park. It is the last of a ‘priceless’ collection of 50 master pieces. Raffle tickets are still available at various locations in Milton Keynes, including Midsummer Place, Bletchley Park and Willen Hospice.

The evening promises to be a great success, the Mayor of Milton Keynes Cllr Debbie Brock said: “This is going to be a fantastic evening with wonderful food, lively entertainment and excellent company. Being so close to Christmas, we hope this also helps provide people with a fun alternative to a Christmas party.”

The dress code for the evening is black tie and carriages will be at midnight.
