The Gentlemen’s Ball On Wednesday, October 28, GQ hosted the second annual Gentlemen’s Ball, a private fundraising event to benefit the charities supported by The Gentlemen’s Fund. Held at the Edison Ballroom in New York City, The Gentlemen’s Ball welcomed 300 guests and raised more than $370,000 for the Pat Tillman Foundation, Oceana, The Mark Wahlberg Youth Foundation, and the U.S. Fund for UNICEF. The event included an hour of cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, followed by dinner and the ceremony. The Gentlemen’s Fund celebrity ambassadors—Ashton Kutcher, Adrian Grenier, Mark Wahlberg, and Josh Duhamel (via video)—were all in attendance. The evening’s program was capped off with a live performance by Kid Cudi and Akon, followed by an exclusive Ketel One after-party. Throughout the event, guests enjoyed Ketel One specialty cocktails and Stella Artois.
