Charity galas like this play a critical role in nonprofit sustainability. According to Double the Donation’s fundraising insights:


Events that combine entertainment and engagement often increase donor participation and overall fundraising success.


For this year’s Phoenix Ball, BAMA Casino Company brought in a full casino night setup that fit perfectly into the black-tie atmosphere.


Our trained dealers kept the games moving while interacting with guests in a fun, professional way. The vibe was competitive but relaxed, exactly what you want at a casino fundraiser.


Casino nights work exceptionally well for charity galas because they create built-in interaction. Instead of guests simply sitting at tables, they move around, connect, and stay engaged. BizBash highlights how interactive entertainment boosts event energy and networking:


That’s exactly what we saw at the Phoenix Ball. Guests stayed on the gaming floor, cheering, laughing, and making it a true experience.

The Venue: B&A Warehouse in Birmingham


B&A Warehouse is one of Birmingham’s most recognizable event venues. With its historic charm, exposed brick, and flexible layout, it’s ideal for large-scale corporate events, fundraisers, and charity galas.


The space transitions beautifully from cocktail reception to live band performance to casino night floor. For an event like the Phoenix Ball, which featured Park Band as the headliner the layout allowed entertainment and casino action to coexist seamlessly.
