Viennese restaurant and club entrepreneur Martin Ho's legendary Pratersauna on the party floor of the 'An Homage to Life Ball' event

Today, Martin Ho's Dots Group released information about the hospitality group's support of 'An Homage to Life Ball' on World AIDS Day, December 1, 2023, commemorating the 30th anniversary of the legendary 'Life Ball' in Vienna. The Life Ball took place from 1993 to 2019 and is known for its impact in the fight against HIV/AIDS. The ball has attracted international stars such as Kylie Minogue, Catherine Deneuve, Eva Longoria, Antonio Banderas, Katy Perry, Naomi Campbell, Sharon Stone, Elton John, etc. and has raised over 30 million euros for global HIV/AIDS projects since its inception. The anniversary celebration at the Palais Auersperg on December 1, 2023 will be a mix of art, culture and music with performances by artists such as Conchita Wurst and DJ Mosey (Pierre Sarkozy).

The Dots Group has been a supporter of the Life Ball for many years. At the upcoming event, the group will provide catering and host the 'Pratersauna' on the party floor. The dress code for the evening is a nod to past Life Ball mottos.

Tickets for the event are available online at https://30.lifeball.org/.
