The past, present, and future of ballet — on one stage

Returning for its third year, The Winter Gala has become an annual event—an electrifying celebration of ballet’s past, present, and future. This dazzling, one-night-only event unites the extraordinary artistry of Alberta Ballet’s professional dancers with the exceptional talent of Alberta Ballet School’s elite students, creating a breathtaking showcase of passion, and artistry.

This mixed program is meticulously curated by Artistic Director Francesco Ventriglia, designed to honour ballet’s rich history while embracing its bold future. Alberta Ballet’s company artists and Alberta Ballet School’s professional students will share the stage, performing both beloved classics and striking new creations. Together, they reveal ballet’s full power—from its technical brilliance and emotional depth to its ability to push artistic boundaries and inspire audiences.

With over 130 performers, this grand collaboration is a testament to Alberta Ballet’s commitment to nurturing the next generation of artists. The energy in the theatre is electric, as one powerful piece follows another, leaving audiences awe-struck year after year.
