At the Farm Sanctuary Gala, hearts and minds are opened to the suffering of farm animals, new activists are born, and our efforts are strengthened. On this special night, celebrity supporters, business leaders, legislators, activists, and members join as a community of advocates working together to help farm animals in need.

We are proud to honor those who work so tirelessly in farm animals' defense, to promote compassionate living through a decadent, gourmet vegan dinner and cruelty-free samples, and to highlight the powerful work of artists who are making a difference. Through the program, we inspire, educate and entertain our guests with moving performances that capture the spirit of our shared commitment to creating a more humane world.

On this night, farm animals stand firmly in the spotlight, as we celebrate the lives of these beautiful, sentient beings, commemorate our victories on their behalf, and build support for Farm Sanctuary's vital rescue, education and advocacy efforts.

Please join us.


Tickets are $400 per person.
