The Detroit Gatsby is proud to host Activate Detroit Potential’s official launch and fundraiser, the Dark Faerie Tale Masquerade Ball!

Our Detroit Gatsby events are always incredibly fun and glamorous! This year we wanted our gala to be an immersive experience as well. So not only will our guests enjoy dressing up for a fabulous night out, they will also be part of a theatrical production where they will interact with some of their favorite fairy tale characters as they play out some of the darker themes found in famous fairy tales.

It's a new, adult Detroit Gatsby experience! The Belle Isle Casino will be transformed into an enchanting hall filled with candelabra-bedecked tables, still-life vignettes, magically delectable passed hors d’oeuvres, strolling supper and an complimentary bar with signature liquor-laced potions, pop-up performances, and spell-inducing music.

VIP ticket holders will have access to our VIP area where they can enjoy the VIP bar and mingle with Detroit sports legends and celebrities!

Proceeds will go to Activate Detroit Potential, a non profit organization that partners with for profit companies to provide skills training, employment and holistic support services for at-risk women in Detroit.
