The Ellie Fund Red Carpet Gala is where compassion meets glamour.
For three decades, this signature event has brought our community together to honor, celebrate, and uplift breast cancer patients and their families.
Join us for the 30th Ellie Fund Red Carpet Gala: an evening filled with community, joy and hope.
This year, we are honored to recognize Elin Hilderbrand as our 2026 Honoree. Her courage, generosity, and unwavering advocacy for the breast cancer community inspire us all. The Gala is not only a night to celebrate remarkable individuals, but also an opportunity to come together in support of the patients and families who need us most.

Arrive on time so you don’t miss the red carpet (the longest red-carpet event in Boston!), the music and the best cocktail-style hors d’oeuvres during our reception.
As we celebrate our 30th anniversary, expect surprises throughout the night! We’ll also host an exciting auction featuring our best experiences and items yet.
Then at 7:00 PM, we move into dinner and prepare to watch the 98th Oscars together, a beloved Gala tradition.
Location:
Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport
450 Summer St, Boston, MA 02210
After an outstanding experience last year, we are returning to the Omni. But if you attended in 2025, don’t expect a repeat. This year’s celebration will bring new energy, new surprises, new faces and beloved friends.
