Lifeforce Gala
Step into the radiant energy of LIFEFORCE – the theme guiding this year’s Ballarat International Foto Biennale – at an unforgettable evening of art, connection, and celebration. The LIFEFORCE GALA is the official opening night charity event marking the 11th edition of Australia’s leading photographic festival.
This dazzling gala invites you to celebrate the creative force of this year’s exhibiting artists in the company of fellow art lovers, cultural leaders, and visionaries. Be among the first to preview the festival’s most talked-about works and meet the talent behind the lens, as we toast to photography’s power to reveal, resist, and renew.
Highlights of the evening include:
- Special artist appearances from across the Biennale program
- An exclusive viewing of the I LOVE Campbell exhibition
- Cocktails by Kilderkin Distillery
- Premium local food by Heirloom Catering Co.
- Wines by Dalwhinnie Wine
- Uplifting dance floor energy to stir the senses by Milo Eastwood from PBS FM’s The Breakfast Spread
- Dress boldly, shine brightly. This is Black Tie Supernova – where classic elegance meets celestial flair.
All proceeds from the gala support the Ballarat International Foto Biennale’s mission to champion photographic excellence and creative innovation.
