Bedford Gala Evening 2024 - Beyond Imagination

Held on Saturday 4 May 2024 at the Adelaide Convention Centre.

Hans, International Superstar, was our spectuatular Gala Evening host and brought his unique style of cabaret, pizzaz and humour to the Bedford Gala evening in 2024!

Guests were taken on a journey of imagination and possibility at Bedford’s 2024 major fundraiser gala evening, Beyond Imagination!

All of history’s greatest innovations have begun as a glimmer of an idea, a sparkle of vision, a twinkle of a dream, a creation from an imagination.

Bedford is on the path of innovation. Sailing on the seas of imagination, possibility, and creation to transform the landscape of disability employment in Australia.

All funds raised at the event went to supporting and boosting the landscape for disability employment and opportunities in Australia.

After the success of the inaugural Bedford Gala in 2023 and again at the 2024 Beyond Imagination Gala Evening, Bedford are excited to announce this event will return in 2025 to celebrate the 80th year of Bedford - an incredible milestone.

We'd love for you to join us, let us know you can make it by completing this form.
