Check out a few of the many Philadelphia and beyond Galas that BVTLive! has recently provided entertainment for:
The Philadelphia Auto Show Black Tie Tailgate Gala:
The 2024 Black Tie Tailgate, the kickoff event to start The Philadelphia Auto Show week-long convention, is the premier January party in Philadelphia. BVTLive! provided the headlining entertainment, Jellyroll, who has been performing at the luxurious Gala for over fifteen years.
BVTLive! also provided all of the musical acts for the entire event: jazz trios, electric violinists, acoustic guitar, and DJ Fusion set at the entryway. Our musicians were stationed throughout the many different rooms of the PA Convention Center providing a lively ambiance to the guests.
Jellyroll got the dance floor packed, and the party started for the 3,000+ people in attendance. Our longstanding relationship with the Philadelphia Auto Show and the PA Convention Center is one we are proud of. We look forward to this event at the start of every year!
Alex’s Lemonade Stand Lemon Ball Gala
The Alex’s Lemonade Stand Lemon Ball, a gala benefitting the Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation and childhood cancer, took place in 2024 at the Springfield Country Club. Having provided entertainment for the Lemon Ball Gala over the last decade, we were elated to be asked back. BVTLive! is honored to be a part of this event, which is filled with auctions, guest speakers, dinner, and a performance from our band, Strangers, to wrap up the evening. All proceeds benefit finding a cure for childhood cancer.
Pre-pandemic, the lavish gala was hosted at the Philadelphia Marriot Downtown. Our bands Strangers, Deja Blue, and Back2Life have all performed at this event to help raise money for this Philadelphia based charity.

The Philadelphia Heart Ball celebrates the incredible feats the American Heart Association conquers every day to ensure each person in America has a healthy heart. The night is filled with guest speakers, survivors, dinner, and this year, the featured entertainment of Big Ric Rising. Hosted at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, guests had the chance to cut loose for the night and celebrate all the positive change that has taken place since the American Heart Association’s founding in 1924.
