2026 Last Chance for White Pants Gala
Black and White Coastal Gala!
Mark your calendars for Saturday, August 29, 2026, as we celebrate the end of summer in elegant, coastal-inspired style at the 2026 Last Chance for White Pants Gala. Join us from 7–11 PM as we return to the stunning Brooklyn Arts Center for an unforgettable evening themed “Black & White Coastal Gala.”
Lower Cape Fear LifeCare’s Last Chance for White Pants Gala has become one of the region’s most beloved summer traditions, and last year was one for the record books. In 2025, our community helped raise an extraordinary $160,000 to directly support compassionate care for individuals and families facing serious illness.
This year promises to be just as spectacular.
Get ready to sip, savor, and celebrate while enjoying signature coastal elegance, great company, and music that keeps the dance floor full.
