The Bal
Centered on the theme "Beyond Crises," the Bal Lavande invites you to a meaningful benefit evening celebrating everything that exists beyond epilepsy.
The event will bring together philanthropists, partners, professionals, families, and individuals affected by epilepsy, united by a shared goal: to drive progress and make a tangible contribution toward a future where epilepsy limits neither dreams nor possibilities.
Unfolding
The Bal Lavande will begin with a signature cocktail, followed by a gourmet dinner before giving way to music and dancing. An evening to come together, raise awareness, celebrate, and, above all… Move beyond crises, together.
Under the honorary chairmanship of Mark Keezer and Louis-François Marcotte, the Fondation Québécoise de l’Épilepsie invites you to Maison Principale on May 14, 2027 for the very first edition of the Bal Lavande.
Beginning at 6:00 p.m., nearly 325 guests from the business, philanthropic, healthcare, and local communities will gather for an exceptional evening inspired by hope, innovation, and solidarity with those living with epilepsy.
Throughout the evening, deeply moving personal stories will bring the human reality of epilepsy to the forefront, while the premiere of a short documentary will offer a sensitive and authentic look at the many facets of the condition, from the perspectives of those living with epilepsy and those who support them.
Guests will enjoy a refined gastronomic experience surrounded by elegant, lavender-hued décor, punctuated by inspiring moments and a few surprises carefully curated for this inaugural edition.
As the lighting shifts and the atmosphere becomes more festive, the celebration will truly begin. A DJ-led dance floor will bring the evening to life, extending this memorable gathering late into the night.
Far more than a philanthropic event, the Bal Lavande aims to become a must-attend annual occasion where generosity, connection, and emotion come together to champion a cause that deserves to be heard.
