The gala is at Rosecliff and will support renovations for the reopening of the historic Newport Opera House Theater & Performing Arts Center.

According to Newport Polo, "the annual sell-out event draws nearly 400 generous and fun-loving attendees to make a red carpet entrance in bold Latin black tie adaptation for a night of exquisite gourmet creations, dancing and heart-warming philanthropy, to welcome international guests of honor, the Mexican Polo Team, and support the 2017 beneficiary, the Opera House Theater & Performing Arts Center on Washington Square in Newport.

"The Newport Opera House Theater & Performing Arts Center is so honored to have been chosen as the beneficiary of this year's International Polo Charity Ball Auction,” said Alison Vareika, Chair, Opera House Board of Directors. “We thank you for supporting the mission of the Newport Opera House Theater & Performing Arts Center, and for recognizing the value that this restored historic theater, with its dynamic program of year-round live performances, will bring to the greater Newport community and its visitors."
