Simply the Best!

Weston Park Cancer Charity is delighted to announce a unique afternoon of glitz and glam is set to hit the Sheffield City Hall this October as the organisers of the much-loved BB with Love event will be hosting a special gala dinner ‘Simply the Best 2024’ in aid of the charity.

Set across the backdrop of the stunning Sheffield City Hall’s Ballroom on Sunday 6 October, guests will enjoy a red-carpet entrance, drinks and canapé reception and a fine dining two course meal.

Guests will also enjoy performances from the sensational West End star and star of The Voice UK Matt Croke and his very special guests, a live band and entertainment, an auction and a disco.

The event’s main show promises show-stopping performances from the amazingly talented Matt Croke who will also be joined by songwriter and record producer Eliot Kennedy, the wonderful Sheffield Cancer Choir, talented students from RMC Academy of Theatre Performance as well as some other very special guests.

Rachel and Matthew Croke, Simply the Best and BB with Love event organisers, said: “We are delighted to announce the details of our upcoming Simply the Best gala dinner and our continued support for the amazing work of Weston Park Cancer Charity.

“We can’t wait to welcome guests to the afternoon which promises to be jam-packed with performances, beautiful food and good company.

“We have supported the incredible work of the charity for many years now mainly through our annual BB with Love event ‘Simply the Best’ but this year we wanted to create a more intimate event for people to enjoy.

“This event as always gives our family the opportunity to celebrate our phenomenal mum and incredible wife to dad Bev who is the heart of BB with love after losing her brave battle with breast cancer aged just 61 in March 2021.

“We look forward to seeing you there and thank everyone for their continued support!”

Cat Rhone, Deputy CEO of Weston Park Cancer Charity, said: “We are honoured to hear that yet again the Croke family have chosen to host their own event to support our work here at the charity.

“Without the help and enthusiasm of our supporters we would be unable to continue our vital work for the one in two people affected by cancer across our region.

“We’re excited for Simply the Best and look forward to seeing many people there!”
