The 17th annual Big Night Out will be held on Saturday May 3rd, 2014. This
distinctive and highly successful lifestyle event explores the beauty and uniqueness of Pasadena and surrounding areas. Proceeds benefit AIDS Service Center (ASC).
Big Night Out has become one of the region’s most enthusiastically anticipated events and
ASC’s premiere fundraiser. The concept is simple: Over five hundred guests gather at a grand estate for the event’s gala reception and then proceed to various themed dinner parties for the rest of the evening.
The evening begins at Stratford Manor, the rare crown jewel of La-Canada Flintridge.
Majestically situated on four acres, Stratford Manor is a magnificent French Normandy estate with breathtaking views of the San Gabriel Mountains. The reception is from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm and features live and silent auctions, as well as samplings of hors d’oeuvres from the area’s finest restaurants. Following the gala, guests depart to individual homes for intimate themed dinner parties hosted by supporters of ASC.
The dinner parties are hosted at a unique array of beautiful homes. This year’s themes include, among others, a special birthday celebration replete with party favors and entertainment, a festive affair with a menu inspired by a local politician’s grandmother’s secret Italian recipes, an exciting cityscape view of Downtown LA, The Ice House Comedy Club featuring a celebrity comedian, a six course French cuisine themed soiree that will have you saying “delicieux,” and much more.
Chairs of this year’s event are Andrea Vining of Morgan Stanley and Antonio Gallardo of FRAI Inc.
Tickets = $250 includes gala reception + dinner party / $125 gala reception only.
