Eat, drink and bid your way through a glamorous evening of impact.
It’s that moment when the swell of sunset shifts into dark hues and deep blues. When the first chill note strikes in the breeze and when the glimmer of stars appear. It’s Meadow Brook Hall’s biggest annual fundraising experience — and this year we have a new look. Nightfall at The Hall is the next iteration of our hugely successful Wild Game Dinner & Auction.
Join us for a big evening of sipping cocktails, enjoying hors d’oeuvres and live music and exploring our unique selection of silent auction items along the loggia terrace. Choose from jewelry, travel experiences, exclusive packages, outdoor gear, hunting rifles and much more.
A fantastic dinner follows, featuring fresh entrees crafted by our in-house chef. Then experience the flurry of excitement as our live auction takes center stage and the big bidding truly begins. As the evening draws to a close, you’ll step out under the sparkle of starlight as it shines across the Great Estate.
