After a very challenging few years, the grand Bal des Lumieres returned to its glittering stomping grounds at the Bell Centre to host one of its most spectacular soirees to date, attracting the city’s top brass, who turned out in rare form, garbed in the prescribed jeans and bling dress. As red carpets dazzled, performances impressed and food and dance were of their usual peak variety, the magical night raised a record breaking $2,060,000 for mental health, benefiting organizations that go the distance like FONDATION JEUNES EN TETE, THE DOUGLAS, and FONDATION L’INSTITUT UNIVERSITAIRE EN SANTE MENTALE DE MONTREAL. Welcome baaccckkkk BDL, we missed you!
