Forget Me Not Ball

August 15, 2026

The Forget Me Not Ball was created by a group of passionate locals who have witnessed the impact of dementia on the people they love — parents, grandparents and friends. More than just a gala, it’s a night to honour those affected, raise vital funds for dementia research, and help ensure more moments are spent making memories that matter.

Join us on 15 August at the stunning Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention and Event Centre for a Palm Royale-themed evening of glamour, entertainment and purpose, as we come together to create hope for the future.
