Clan Cancer Support’s flagship annual ball returns in 2026 with a fresh new look as the Fall Ball.

Taking place at The Chester Hotel on Friday, September 25, 2026, the event will celebrate the autumn season with a refreshed theme, new entertainment and a new host. With limited tickets remaining, guests are encouraged to secure their place soon, as the evening brings people together to support those impacted by cancer across the north-east, Moray, Orkney and Shetland.

The evening will be led by experienced event host and Clan Board member Claire Stevenson, with well-known Scottish broadcaster Richard Gordon as auctioneer.

Starting with a drinks reception featuring live music from the acclaimed Rococo Quartet, during-dinner entertainment will be provided by singer and pianist duo The Elastix, before guests take to the dancefloor for high-energy performances from Starsky & The Hornstars.

Guests will enjoy a welcome drink on arrival and a three-course meal, alongside a range of fundraising opportunities throughout the night including a silent auction, live auction, raffle and the opportunity to win exclusive prizes.

Fiona Fernie, CEO at Clan Cancer Support, said: “We’re excited to bring a new theme to this year’s Ball, where guests can enjoy delicious food and drinks alongside a fantastic line-up of entertainment in an atmosphere of autumnal elegance.

“We’re incredibly grateful for the support already provided by local organisations, including Inverurie Precast, Autosave and MDL, whose sponsorship is helping to make the event possible. There are still opportunities for others to get involved, whether through sponsorship, donating auction or raffle prizes, or joining us on the night.

“This promises to be a special evening, and by attending you will be helping ensure Clan can continue supporting local people and families impacted by cancer across the north-east, Moray, Orkney and Shetland.”

Tables of 10 are available, with the option to add additional guests if required. Standard tickets are priced at £110 per person or £1,100 per table, while VIP packages cost £1,600 per table of 10 and include a prime location in the room, prosecco for the table and optional programme recognition.
