The Sydney Chocolate Ball offers a night like no other, where luxury meets purpose, bringing together a full house of the echelon of corporate, philanthropic and entertainment sectors at the Sydney Event Centre. This iconic event brings together over 500 influential guests for an unforgettable evening of indulgence, storytelling and philanthropy.
Guests will indulge in a chocolate-inspired three-course menu designed by celebrity Chef Luke Mangan OAM, paired with fine French champagne provided by Moet Hennessy Australia, premium wines and unforgettable entertainment — all in support of the FSHD Global Research Foundation.
Our theme and message for the 2026 Sydney Chocolate Ball is Mission Possible. FSHD Global Research Foundation is a leading international funder and patient advocacy organisation, driving research, clinical-trial readiness and global collaboration to accelerate the development of treatments and to achieve our ultimate mission to cure FSHD. Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a progressive, inherited muscle-wasting disease affecting adults and children worldwide. With clinical trials now underway in Australia and more on the horizon, this impossible mission becomes possible. The Sydney Chocolate Ball is the Foundation’s major annual fundraiser – help us make our Mission Possible.
