Cal Performances invites you to join us on Thursday, April 4, 2024, for an unforgettable evening featuring the renowned Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater.

Tickets are now available for this highlight of the 2023-24 Bay Area cultural season that you won’t want to miss! Designed to highlight the company’s week-long residency at Cal Performances, the evening will feature a presentation that includes their beloved piece Revelations with live music and additional programming to be announced at a later date.

Enjoy a festive cocktail reception, priority seating for the performance, and an elegant dinner with dancers from the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. The best seats at the performance will be reserved for Gala guests. Tickets will be limited, so we encourage you to make plans to join us for this high-profile event.
