IGNITING AWARENESS FOR WORLD AIDS DAY
Sunday, November 30, 2025 at ReelWorks Denver
Step into Denver’s most anticipated cultural event of the year—Red Ball 2025, where fashion meets advocacy in a dazzling celebration of creativity and awareness for World AIDS Day.
Celebrating its 17th anniversary, Red Ball brings together Denver’s vibrant fashion, art, and performance communities for an unforgettable night. Expect a jaw-dropping fusion of high fashion, electrifying dance, mesmerizing drag performances, ethereal aerial acts, and live music, all woven into the powerful story of HIV/AIDS across the decades.
This year’s theme reflects resilience: triumph over tragedy, hope over fear, and the strength of community action. Together, we ignite the fire of advocacy.
Join us on Sunday, November 30th, for an unforgettable evening with live and silent auctions, cocktails, catering, inspiring stories from Colorado Health Network clients, and more.
