On Tuesday, 25 March, the Madd Team and the Children’s Hospital Foundation came together to officially launch the 2025 Madd Ball – A Night in Positano – with a special gesture of gratitude for the incredible staff and families at the Queensland Children’s Hospital.

In true Amalfi Coast style, we brought a taste of Positano to Brisbane with a lemon sorbet giveaway, serving over 400 cups to hospital staff, patients and their families. Music played throughout the space as Madd team members connected with the hospital community, making it a relaxed and uplifting way to mark the beginning of this year’s Madd Ball campaign.

This activation was our way of saying thank you—to the doctors, nurses, support staff and everyone who plays a role in delivering world-class care to sick kids and their families. We’re incredibly proud to support the Children’s Hospital Foundation and events like this allow us to celebrate the partnership while raising awareness for the life-changing work they do.

The launch also gave a glimpse of what’s to come at this year’s Ball, taking place on 25 October 2025. Guests can look forward to an unforgettable evening in support of the Children’s Hospital Foundation—with live entertainment, incredible auction items and the chance to win a brand-new Hyundai, exclusively for those attending on the night.

We’re so grateful to the Madd Ball Committee and the Foundation for bringing this launch to life and to the hospital community for welcoming us so warmly. The countdown is officially on—and we’re excited to continue supporting this incredible cause.
