“Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a fantastic theme and we are working hard planning a night of total escapism and fantasy for our guests, where they can enjoy brilliantly-executed entertainment with good food and company—all for good causes.”

He added: “Please remember this is not a money making event for the Chamber, it is to raise money for local charities.

“These are causes which really need our help, therefore, any contribution you can make is greatly appreciated, not only by the Chamber, but also by those people in our community who will benefit from your generosity.”

The ball has become a much loved highlight of the Chamber events calendar and

was honoured with the 2008 Corporate Event of the Year prize in the prestigious Yorkshire Business Insider Business Tourism Awards. 

The winning theme was Around the World in 80 Days and guests embarked on a journey around the globe, following in the footsteps of Phileas Fogg and his trusty companion Passepartout. 

Last year's ball celebrated the centenary of the Chamber in Rotherham with a trip back through time, starting in 2009 and finishing in Edwardian-themed 1909.
