Tickets for the 13th Annual Cordova Mall Ball are on sale now! This year’s event will be held Saturday, Jan. 19, from 8 a.m. to midnight at Cordova Mall to benefit sick and injured children at Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital. The event is coordinated by the Krewe of Les Petits Enfants (Order of the Small Children) and presented by Wendy’s.

Tickets can be purchased in advance of the event for $50 per person at the Sacred Heart Foundation office. Tables of 8 are available for $425 and must be reserved in advance. There are a limited number of tickets available, and last year’s event sold out several weeks before the event. You must be 21 or older to attend, and IDs will be checked at the door. Dress is costume or black tie optional. Tickets may be purchased by phone by calling (850) 416-4660.

Cordova Mall will close early that evening to allow the festivities to begin at 8 p.m. Attendees can enjoy live music and sample foods from approximately 25 Pensacola restaurants. Entertainment will be provided by “Accent,” “Lafayette’s Bayou Boys,” and “Reunion Band.” A silent auction also will be part of the fun, including vacation packages, jewelry, art, golf packages and much more.

Last year, more than 2,500 people attended this sold-out event that raised more than $147,000 for Children’s Hospital, a hospital dedicated to the care of children for more than 38 years. It is the only pediatric facility in the region and provides a number of pediatric sub-specialists in partnership with Nemours Children’s Clinic.

Over the past 13 years, the event has generated close to $1 million in proceeds on behalf of sick and injured children at Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital.
