Join us at the Loeb Boathouse in Central Park for Candlelighters NYC’s 14th Annual Hero Celebration!

This year, we are especially excited to honor the NYPD Central Park Precinct!

Be inspired and show your support for childhood cancer survivors, kids fighting cancer now and the parents and community supporting their battle as we celebrate their braveness and vow to never give up!

Your donation includes dinner, dessert and beverages as well as watching a full line-up of world-class entertainers including:



The Famous O’Malley Irish Step Dancers



Candlelighters NYC father/daughter musical duo, Julia & Todd Davidson



Everybody’s favorite magician “The AMAZING Max”!



Singer/ Songwriter, Sidney Sherwood



…and much, much more!



The night includes our “Parade of Heroes”, a procession of kids currently fighting cancer!

You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll be thoroughly entertained.

But, most of all, you’ll be supporting one of NYC’s best childhood cancer non-profit organizations as 100% of your donation goes to Candlelighters NYC to support the incredible work they do year around.

“BECAUSE KIDS CAN’T FIGHT CANCER ALONE.”
