100 Women Grant Celebration 2026

Be in the room as we award the grants that change lives.

On Friday 23 October, we award this year's grant winners, chosen by you, our members. Join us for the 100 Women Grant Celebration, a cocktail reception by the Swan River at On the Point in East Perth, from 5pm to 9pm, as we celebrate the recipients of the 100 Women 2026 grant round. Canapés and drinks, DJ Bronia, the photobooth, raffle prizes and a room full of people who care about the same things you do.

Previously a sit-down gala, this year we have evolved the evening into a stand-up cocktail reception. The new format makes it more accessible to more people, gives us more time to connect, and creates a more relaxed atmosphere. It's one of our favourite nights of the year, and we'd love you to be part of it.

Thanks to your generous support, 100 Women is reaching more women and girls around the world through the grassroots projects we fund. With 49 grants awarded to date, we've collectively impacted more than 39,500 women and girls. This is only possible because of this extraordinary community of everyday givers.

We hope you can join us for a joyful, inspiring evening as we celebrate 13 years of giving together.

THE DETAILS

How the evening flows

It's a relaxed, stand-up evening with no allocated tables, so you're welcome to arrive at any point from 5pm and move around the room as you like.

Arrival and networking - Settle in with a drink and canapés, say hello to the 100 Women community, and visit the photobooth, always a favourite. Weather permitting, there will be casual seating outdoors during our networking time, so you can enjoy the river.

The formalities - In the early part of the evening, we pause for a short formal program, with theatre seating so everyone can sit comfortably. Our Co-Founder, Alicia Curtis, will MC the night, and we'll announce the grant winners you voted for.

Later in the evening - The raffle and the Deck of Charities return, DJ Bronia keeps the music going, and there's more time to catch up before we close at 9pm.

Dress code

Cocktail or business smart. Think a dress, jumpsuit, suit or smart separates. As it's a stand-up evening, comfortable shoes are a good idea. If you plan to enjoy the outdoor seating by the river, a light layer is handy once the sun goes down.

Coming with a group?

Groups are very welcome, and group tickets are available. The open format gives your group more time to connect, interact and catch up, with the freedom to mix with others from the community.

Drinks

Beer, wine and soft drinks are served throughout the evening. A cash bar is available for spirits
