The Make-A-Wish Masquerade Crystal Ball took place at The Burlington Hotel and the theme of this year’s event was a masquerade ball with all guests being presented with masks to add an “air of mystery” to the evening - and to hide behind when doing the walk of shame the next day.
Always a glamorous event there were many well known faces in attendance, including Ken Doherty, Bernard Dunne, Caroline Harrington, Gareth O’ Callaghan and Johnny Sexton. Miriam O’Callaghan was MC for the evening.
The event kicked off with a Grey Goose cocktail reception, followed by a 5-course meal. Following dinner there was a charity raffle raising much needed funds for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Some of the fabulous prizes on the night included Weekends Away, Jewellery vouchers and Health treatments.
Live entertainment was by the inimitable Barry Murphy of Après Match fame, well known Irish band, Perfect Day followed by DJ Tommy Greene who will play into the small hours.
