2025 Masquerade Gala is postponed to 2026

26 Sep 2025

Thank you to everyone who supported and purchased tickets for our Masquerade Gala, initially set for 10 October at the Shangri-La Hotel Sydney.  

After thoughtful consultation with our major partners, we’ve made the strategic decision to postpone the event to 2026. We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause ticket holders. 

This extra time allows us to align the Gala with exciting advancements in Tele-Vision—our virtual care model powered by imaging technology and AI. These innovations are helping us bring emergency eye care closer to home for regional communities across NSW, and we’re excited to showcase this progress as part of a truly memorable celebration. 

All ticket holders will receive a full refund, and we’ll be unveiling our new plans in early 2026. We’re planning something truly special, and we’re excited to share it with you.  

Thank you for believing in our mission to save sight and create fairer access to care. We look forward to celebrating with you in style and making an even bigger impact—together

For ticket refund questions or concerns, please get in touch with our office by phone on (02) 9382 7415 or email us at info@sehf.org.au. We're here to help. 

Stay tuned. The future is bright.
