Hospice Waikato & Montana Food and Events Present ... A Night at the Grand
Date: 24 Nov 2025
We are excited to share the details for the Hospice Waikato & Montana Food and Events Bucket List Banquet. A Night at the Grand, taking place on Saturday the 16th of May 2026, promises to be a glitzy, high-energy evening, interlaced with intriguing illusion, the smooth crooning of Sinatra, and high-octane dance troupes that will light up the stage. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to bring together the Waikato business community for an evening of networking, connection, and collective generosity — all in support of Hospice Waikato.
We are thrilled to announce that Dallas Fisher, Troy Reid, and the team from Montana Food and Events are once again joining us as naming rights sponsor for 2026. Montana Food and Events have been significant partners of the Bucket List Banquet since the event’s inception in 2013, taking the lead as naming rights sponsor for most of those years. As we celebrate the 13th year of this iconic event, we are honoured to once again have the Montana name alongside ours. H3 Group are confirmed as Silver Level sponsors once again and we can’t thank them enough for their ongoing support. We look forward to sharing the details of more event partners in the coming months.
There are many ways you can be involved. If you’d like to join us at the event, or have a special item that you’d like to donate for the live and silent auction items, please reach out to Cherie McCleery – [email protected]. She would love to hear from you.
