Raue Center Announces 2026 Stargazers Ball for Valentine’s Day

URGENT UPDATE: The Raue Center For The Arts has just announced the highly anticipated return of its signature event, the 2026 Stargazers Ball—Love to Love You, Raue Center, scheduled for February 14, 2026. After a five-year hiatus, this glamorous gala is set to dazzle attendees with an unforgettable Valentine’s celebration filled with romance and purpose, making it an event you won’t want to miss.

This year’s ball promises a night of enchanting experiences, with guests savoring a sumptuous buffet-style dinner created by 3 Chefs. The menu features elegant carving stations and indulgent desserts, complemented by an open bar serving disco-themed cocktails to keep the festivities alive throughout the evening.

After dinner, the dance floor will come alive as guests groove to the electrifying sounds of Chicago’s disco queen, Lynne Jordan. Her powerhouse vocals are expected to create an electric atmosphere, encouraging everyone to dance beneath the iconic mirrorball.

But this gala isn’t just about celebration; it’s about giving back. Proceeds will support the Raue Center’s mission to provide world-class performing arts and arts education to the Crystal Lake community. This is a chance to enjoy a magical night while contributing to a worthy cause.

Tickets for the 2026 Stargazers Ball go on sale soon through Auctria, and given the event’s popularity, they are expected to sell out quickly. Make sure to secure your spot for what promises to be the most romantic night of the year!
