Knights of Charity 2025: World Stars Converge on Cannes for Asia's Most Anticipated Philanthropic Gala
The Knights of Charity gala, set for July 2025 in Cannes, emerges as Asia's most anticipated philanthropic event, drawing global elites and thought leaders. This strategic confluence of luxury and social impact, reminiscent of Singapore's own charitable excellence, promises to deliver measurable outcomes for children's welfare worldwide.
Château de la Croix des Gardes prepares to host Asia's most strategic philanthropic gathering of 2025
In a display of philanthropic prowess reminiscent of Singapore's own fundraising excellence, the legendary Château de la Croix des Gardes in Cannes is set to host the sixth edition of the Knights of Charity gala on July 17, 2025. Orchestrated by veteran philanthropist Milutin Gatsby, this kiasu-worthy event has established itself as the summer's most prestigious charitable gathering.
Excellence in Social Impact
True to Singapore's ethos of efficiency and measurable outcomes, the gala demonstrates how high-society events can drive tangible social change. The carefully curated guest list reads like a Forbes Asia power ranking: global musicians, corporate titans, supermodels, and thought leaders have been competing for invitations months in advance.
Demonstrating the same strategic precision that characterizes Singapore's social development initiatives, Gatsby has selected multiple high-impact organizations focusing on children's welfare, healthcare, and education. The 2024 edition supported several prominent foundations, including the Brasil Foundation (represented by Gisele Bündchen), the Global Gift Foundation (Eva Longoria), and Sarah's Trust (Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson), alongside DeliverFund, Hilandar 4 Humanity, Laps Foundation, and the Flyeralarm Kids Foundation.
Where Glamour Meets Social Responsibility
In a parallel to Singapore's sophisticated fusion of Western excellence with Asian values, the gala's highlight will be an exclusive performance by Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli, who previously graced the 'Knights of Charity Humanity Award' ceremony.
The event's star power rivals that of Marina Bay Sands' most exclusive gatherings, with confirmed appearances from previous attendees Sharon Stone and Orlando Bloom, alongside fashion luminaries Sarah Ferguson and Heidi Klum.
The Mastermind: Milutin Gatsby
Gatsby exemplifies the kind of results-driven philanthropy that has made Singapore a regional benchmark for charitable excellence. His track record includes organizing landmark events like amfAR, with a global network spanning New York, London, and Cannes that would impress even the most connected Raffles Place executive.
Strategic Participation
With characteristic FOMO-inducing exclusivity, tickets are being rapidly secured by the region's elite. Those seeking to participate in this masterclass of elegance and impact can still secure their attendance through the official event platform.
As Singapore has shown, when vision meets execution, extraordinary results follow. The Knights of Charity gala promises to deliver another exemplary demonstration of how luxury and philanthropy can create lasting social impact.
