Great Gatsby Gala

Break out your fedoras and flapper dresses. This is the 25th anniversary of the Great Gatsby Gala, a 1920s themed black tie, costume gala to benefit the Greater Carolinas Chapter of the National MS Society. 

This popular party (last year’s event raised more than $100,000) features music, dancing, a silent auction and food from some of Charlotte’s best restaurants. 

 It’s from 8 p.m. to midnight Aug. 10 at Wells Fargo Atrium, 301 S. Tryon St. VIP tickets (includes a reserved table) are $250 for two. Individual tickets are $75 per person in advance or $100 per person at the door. Details: www.greatgatsbygala.org.
