Big Bash Events Putting the FUN into FUNDRAISING

Charitable events and activities to bring the feelgood factor to in-person events

The first Big Bash was held in 1998, a year after the untimely passing of Adrian Phipps. It was a party, organised as a celebration of his life, with the aim of raising funds for two local charities who had been involved in his care and in supporting his young children following his death. It was a roaring success and a fitting tribute to a man who had loved to dance, to laugh and to share fun wit

h friends and family. Two years later, the second Big Bash was held in the same venue and with many of the same guests. Money was again raised for a local charity, this time an animal rescue for which Adrian's widow and children were volunteering their time and efforts in fostering and rehoming small animals. In 2006, following the death of a long-time friend from cancer, a third Big Bash was held, this time with funds being donated to cancer charities. The night was a fantastic tribute to a vibrant and much-missed lady and friends and family gathered to remember her in the best way possible - dancing, drinking and generally celebrating all the best times! The stage was set some 25 years ago and the Big Bash continues to be a vehicle for raising monies for charitable causes. The same organisers are at the core of the activities and each time an event is held they work closely to support and mentor other people who have been affected by loss or illness or struggle, creating and managing events that breathe life into difficult situations and generate a positive outcome for everyone involved. Big Bash Events are always a giggle and magical memories are made. We love a challenge and we enjoy the planning, despite the stress and the pressure! We put the FUN into FUNdraising and we love that in giving people an opportunity to attend a fantastic event, and paying tribute to some very special people we have lost, we generate much-needed funds for worthy causes and charitable organisations which have true meaning to those involved.

We did it! Saturday night's event was a big success, great fun and some magical memories made.

It was a fantastic tribute to some wonderful people who would have been in the middle of that dance floor if they could.

And with the support of a lot of people who either attended or bought raffle tickets, we have raised £1760, meaning we will be able to donate £880 to each of the nominated charities. They will be thrilled and it will make a difference.

And in times like these, that's an amazing result.

Thank you, sincerely, from the team.

And as we have already been asked, the next Big Bash event will be announced soon

Big announcement - our first event of 2023 is about to go live!
Big Bash 25 will take place on Saturday 29 April 2023 at Exeter Hall in Kidlington.
25 years on from the first Big Bash event, we will gather again to celebrate the lives of some very special people and raise money for some very worthy causes. It promises to be an evening of fun, laughter, time with friends, a few daft games, excellent tunes and a chance to make more magical memories.
It really is a fantastic night out. Free parking on site. Regular bus service back into Oxford later (for anyone who fancies going late night clubbing afterwards!) and a dance floor with plenty of space for everyone to bust some moves!
Previous Big Bash events have raised funds for various charities. This time, we are nominating two causes which have great meaning. The first is AMMF, the Cholangiocarcinoma Charity (in memory of Catherine Coughlan) and the second is to help fund counselling and support to patients and families of people who spent time in Intensive Care at the JR Hospital (in memory of Adrian Phipps).
Admission by ticket only, purchased in advance. Just £10 each (+ small booking fee)
Please go to our TicketSource site to purchase yours or contact us for information about personal or group bookings.
Event is for over 16s only.
