While emotions are still in the air and rave reviews continue to pour in, we have been asked by our dedicated audience, who this year came from Paris and Tokyo, Riyadh and New York, Dubai and San Francisco, Amsterdam and Los Angeles, and many other destinations, to announce the date for the Ballet Icons Gala 2027.
We will meet again for a new celebration of ballet and its most extraordinary dancers on 21 February 2027.
As many have said: here’s to another 20 years! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

There are evenings that arrive softly, and there are evenings that announce themselves with the authority of history. The Ballet Icons Gala 2026 was the latter.This year marked not only the 20th anniversary of Ballet Icons, but my tenth consecutive year attending this remarkable celebration of class...
