Blue Tie Ball 2026
Date: 9th October, 2026
Time: 6:30pm - 11:30pm
Location: ILUMINA, Sydney NSW
With over $1.5 million raised by 5000+ Blue Tie Ball attendees across the last decade, we’ve now reached and supported almost 500,000 young people through our preventative mental health programs and workshops, but there are still so many young lives at risk. Every year, funds raised from the Blue Tie Ball allow us to empower more young people across the country with life-changing mental health education and stories of hope.
What to expect:
Step into a night of impact, energy and celebration at the Blue Tie Ball 2026 - batyr’s signature black-tie fundraiser with a disco twist.
Guests will enjoy a premium sit-down dinner and drinks, high-value auctions and raffles, inspiring speakers, and standout entertainment designed to bring the room together and the dance floor to life. It’s an evening that blends sophistication with joy, creating space to connect, celebrate and give back in a way that feels meaningful and memorable.
The Blue Tie Ball brings together business leaders, philanthropists and batyr supporters to raise vital funds for preventative youth mental health programs delivered across schools and universities nationwide. Every ticket purchased and every dollar raised helps ensure more young Australians are equipped with the tools, confidence and support to navigate life’s challenges and speak up when they need help.
Thanks to our incredible sponsors for making this event possible!

Harriet Nixon Memorial Award
The Harriet Nixon Memorial Award is presented annually at the Blue Tie Ball to an individual who goes above and beyond to support batyr, with little to no recognition. The award has been an important element of the evening since 2015, and was renamed from The Unsung Hero Award in 2017.
