The Imperial Ball is the signature annual fundraising gala of the Chinese Cultural Centre of Greater Toronto (CCCGT). In 2025, CCCGT proudly celebrates the 25th Anniversary of this
landmark event, a remarkable milestone that reflects decades of building bridges, fostering meaningful connections, and deepening cross-cultural understanding among Toronto’s
diverse communities.
This year’s Imperial Ball will take place on Saturday, September 20, 2025, at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel. Guests will enjoy an unforgettable evening featuring exquisite cuisine
crafted by the hotel’s Executive Chef, complemented by spectacular entertainment.、
Program highlights include a performance of the National Anthem by His Majesty’s Canadian Ship (HMCS) Naval Band, captivating dances from My Mulan, and enchanted music by
Canadian Chinese Orchestra Chamber, featuring music arrangements by Dr. Adrian Cheung.
In addition to the evening’s performances, guests will be invited to take part in auctions featuring fine jewelry, traditional Chinese crafts, gourmet dining experiences, grocery and
shopping gift cards. These generous contributions reflect the strong spirit of community support that continues to define the Imperial Ball.
Proceeds from the gala will benefit CCCGT’s landmark Asian Garden Project, a cultural space designed to celebrate Asian heritage and provide a lasting legacy for generations to
come. Funds raised will also support CCCGT’s year-round cultural, educational, and youth empowerment programs, which provide thousands across the GTA with opportunities to learn,
connect, and grow.
We are honoured to have Mr. Lenny Wong serve as the Special Anniversary Imperial Ball Chairman, recognizing his long-standing dedication to CCCGT. We also extend our heartfelt
gratitude to all sponsors for their generous support. Their commitment makes the Imperial Ball possible and enables CCCGT to continue its mission of fostering cultural exchange and
community connection.
We warmly welcome you to join us for an evening of culture, connection, and celebration as we mark the 25th anniversary of the Imperial Ball.
