Mardi Gras 2026

The Henry Allen Trust are delighted to introduce Mardi Gras, an exciting new event launched for 2026.

Building on the success of our much-loved Black & Gold Ball, Mardi Gras offers something entirely different: a vibrant, immersive celebration inspired by the spirit of New Orleans, designed to bring people together through music, movement, colour and joy, all while raising vital funds to support families affected by childhood cancer.

Hosted in the beautiful Orangery at Whittlebury Park, Mardi Gras will welcome 100–120 guests to an unforgettable evening of live entertainment, food stalls, cocktails and dancing, with every element thoughtfully curated to create atmosphere and impact.

Why not gather a group of friends and family together to share this epic night and help raise vital funds to support children and families battling childhood cancer.

Tickets are on sale now and cost just £65 each, book my ticket.

Sponsorship packages are also available, if you would like to sponsor the event and support The Henry Allen Trust to continue raising vital funds for children, teens, young adults and their families battling childhood cancer please click here.

Hope, Dream, Believe and help us achieve.
