Gala Fundraiser
Once Upon a Time at Fairyland
fundraising gala in support of Children’s Fairyland in Oakland
Evening of Wednesday, May 25, 2022
Kick off your glass slippers and join us as we invest in Fairyland’s bright future!
Once Upon a Time at Fairyland returns live and in person to the shores of Lake Merritt, bringing with it a rare—and coveted—opportunity for adults to experience the park without littles. Add to that a gorgeous evening of food, wine, costumes, fun, and philanthropy under the stars and you’ve got an evening that cannot be missed.
Our team is working hard to ensure that you will have an incredible evening while keeping the health and safety of our guests in mind: all attendees will be required to be fully vaccinated, including all recommended booster doses, and we’re using creative event design to enhance space for distancing.
Individual and corporate sponsorships are available now!
Through a sponsorship of Once Upon a Time at Fairyland, you’ll be investing in our mission to spark imagination and a desire to learn by bringing stories to life through immersive experiences. You are also eligible for all kinds of great benefits, from filling a table with the wonderful friends or important clients that you’ve missed over the past two years to recognition to tens of thousands of Fairyland families.
