Palm Springs, CA (The Hollywood Times) 3/7/26 – Excitement is building as the 2026 Luck Be A Lady Gala, benefiting the L-Fund, approaches on March 14, 2026, at the Renaissance Palm Springs Hotel.
Organizers announced that ticket sales officially closed at midnight on March 5, marking the final opportunity for supporters to secure their seats and select their meals for one of Palm Springs’ most anticipated philanthropic evenings.
Guests attending the gala can also participate in the online Silent Auction, which opened ahead of the event and features an exciting collection of experiences and luxury items. Highlights include four tickets to see the Coachella Valley Firebirds in action, wine tasting opportunities featuring selections from woman- and LGBTQ-owned Teneral Cellars along with Grand Tasting tickets to the Equality Wine & Food Fest, and a private in-home Aqua Aerobics class with renowned instructor Dianne Barrow, who has more than 20 years of experience making fitness fun and accessible.
From luxury travel packages to unique local treasures, the auction offers something for everyone while supporting the L-Fund’s mission of helping women in the Coachella Valley facing cancer.
Guests who already have tickets are encouraged to pre-register their credit card for bidding at https://onecau.se/lfundgala so they are ready to place bids during the event.
The L-Fund Gala Committee also reminds attendees that seating requests must be submitted by March 5. Guests who purchased tickets separately but would like to sit together can email the names of their preferred tablemates to galatickets@l-fund.org. Tables seat up to 10 guests and organizers will do their best to accommodate requests received by the deadline.
With sponsors supporting everything from the Casino Experience and Entertainment to Wine Service and the Reception, the evening promises to be an unforgettable night of celebration, philanthropy, and community spirit.
The L-Fund Gala Committee shared that they look forward to celebrating, dancing, and “getting lucky” together at the March 14 gala.
This year’s gala will be especially meaningful for me personally, as I am deeply honored to receive the L-Fund Ambassador Award. As Senior Editor of The Hollywood Times and someone who loves and believes in this incredible Palm Springs community, it means so much to stand alongside so many compassionate people who come together to support women in need. Nights like this truly remind us what makes the desert such a special place. – Valerie Milano
