Hosted by popular comedian and Arsenal fan Matt Lucas and attended by the Arsenal manager, first team squad and Arsenal legends, the Ball promises to be a spectacular occasion celebrating the work of the The Arsenal Foundation – the Club’s charity that aims to transform the lives of young people in the UK and overseas through a range of education and sport initiatives, including those of global charity partner Save the Children.
With a menu designed by Michelin-starred chef, Raymond Blanc, and live entertainment provided by star of The Voice, Tyler James, X Factor sensation, Jahmene Douglas and The London Essentials, the night is set to be one to remember.
A limited number of table packages remain available for the night – Premium packages which include a champagne reception with Arsene Wenger and his team in the exclusive WM Club, followed by a three course dinner are priced at £7,000. Player packages which include the additional luxury of two players on your table for dessert are priced at £10,000. Individual places are also available.
A range of unique auction lots will also be available on the night, including a one-on-one midfield masterclass with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, a framed and signed shirt from the 2003/04 ‘Invincibles’ squad and a pair of running spikes signed by Gunners fan and double Olympic gold medalist Mo Farah.
