Join us for a night to celebrate Dallas’ youth and support the 97 YMCA After-School Programs in the Greater Dallas Metro Area. The Dallas YMCA has teamed up with Every Monday Matters, a movement inspiring the minds and hearts of hundreds of thousands of children, schools, corporations, and people around the world, to bring their YOU MATTER Curriculum to 4,000 YMCA Youth. “Le Cirque Lundi” celebration reminds us that while Mondays bring a circus full of events and responsibilities for the week ahead, it is also a great starting point that is full of possibilities and potential for growth, personal focus and contribution to our community.

Against the backdrop of the Mascolo Estate and the flight of fancy that The Lone Star Circus brings, Le Cirque Lundi will be the premier fundraiser that brings Dallas celebrities, companies, athletes, and families together to impact our community for years to come.

Tickets start at $125 per person
