From the Beatles to Elton John and beyond, the evening promises music, immersive atmosphere, and a powerful cause.

“Rock the Night captures the energy and joy that make Phoenix Children’s Chorus so special,” said Troy Meeker, Artistic and Executive Director. “It is a night where music brings people together in a fun, unforgettable way, while directly supporting young singers and the experiences that help them grow on and off the stage.”

Guests will enjoy an exciting evening that blends live choral performances with themed dinner stations, a hosted bar, and engaging fundraising experiences inspired by the music that defined generations.
