BROADWAY DALLAS ANNOUNCES 2026 GALA
CELEBRATING THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MUSIC HALL AT FAIR PARK
FEATURING A FULL PERFORMANCE OF THE GREAT GATSBY
GALA TABLE PACKAGES AND SHOW & AFTER PARTY TICKETS ON SALE NOW

Dallas, TX (October 6, 2025)– Broadway Dallas is thrilled to announce that tickets are now on sale for its 2026 Gala celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Music Hall at Fair Park, featuring a full performance of THE GREAT GATSBY, on Saturday, February 21, 2026, at the Music Hall at Fair Park.

Presented by The Addy Foundation and led by Gala Chairs Phil and Toni Sanders with Honorary Chairs John Quattrocchi and Joseph DeMartino, the 2026 Gala will transport guests to the Roaring Twenties for an unforgettable evening of grandeur and glamour as the spirit of a century comes to life.

The 2026 Gala holds special significance as it celebrates two cultural milestones: the centennial anniversary of both the Music Hall at Fair Park and F. Scott Fitzgerald’s iconic novel The Great Gatsby. Together, these timeless institutions will converge in one unforgettable evening of music, storytelling, and community impact.

The Broadway Dallas Gala, the organization’s largest annual celebration, brings together Dallas’ leaders, philanthropists, and arts enthusiasts for an unforgettable evening of cocktails, fine dining, VIP experiences, a full performance of the Tony Award®-winning new musical THE GREAT GATSBY, and a lavish prohibition after-party. Special 100th Anniversary support is being provided by Centennial Sponsor Dallas Southwest Osteopathic Physicians. 

Proceeds from the Gala support Broadway Dallas Education: On Stage, In Classrooms and Throughout the Community, which provides access to the arts for more than 60,000 students and families annually across North Texas.

“The Addy Foundation is committed to providing exposure to the arts, leading to understanding and acceptance of varying ideas, perspectives, and cultures,” says Ben Leal, president of The Addy Foundation. “By participating with Broadway Dallas, we are ensuring that exposure to the arts is reaching thousands of people in our community we serve together.”

“As Chairs of the 2026 Broadway Dallas Gala, Toni and I are honored and excited to be part of what will certainly be a fabulous evening,” says Phil Sanders. “On this night we will celebrate the storied history of the Music Hall, experience the magic of Broadway, and further the educational and community outreach mission of Broadway Dallas. This will truly be a night to remember!”

“We are looking forward to this once in a century event celebrating the 100th anniversary of our beloved venue, the Music Hall at Fair Park, and supporting the ongoing work we do to positively impact our community through the spirit of Broadway,” says Ken Novice, president and CEO of Broadway Dallas. “Thanks to the vision and dedication of our Chairs, Phil and Toni Sanders, it will be a remarkable evening you won’t want to miss!”
