Our women’s only event will Restore, Empower and Dazzle Female Cancer Survivors!
This event will support the Hello Gorgeous! organization and provide an information-sharing event for women who have ever heard the words, “You have cancer.”
The Red Event is an inspiring annual gathering created by Hello Gorgeous! for women who have ever heard the words, “You have cancer.” Held on February 20th, 2027 at the Four Winds Casino Event Center, this women’s only day is designed to Restore, Empower & Dazzle — blending meaningful education, connection, and celebration in a supportive and uplifting environment.
Attendees can expect a dynamic program featuring empowering speakers, impactful breakout sessions, uplifting survivor stories, and practical guidance on self-care, wellness, and finding a new normal. A fun and upbeat fashion show, continental breakfast, and lunch are included as part of the experience.
More than just an event, The Red Event is a space for community, encouragement, and hope — where women connect with others who truly understand the journey, gain tools to thrive, and feel celebrated for their strength and resilience. All proceeds support Hello Gorgeous! and its mission to restore beauty, confidence, and joy to women navigating life with cancer.

Experience Our Past Events
We kicked off our 20th anniversary in spectacular fashion! The 2026 RED Event was more than a gathering; it was a powerful reminder of what it means to be Restored, Empowered, and Dazzled. From the dapper gentlemen escorts to the raw, moving encouragement of Kim’s "Keep Going" message, the day was a beautiful balance of practical wisdom and defiant joy.
Whether we were reclaiming our sass on the fashion runway or laughing until it hurt with Craig Tournquest’s "Wacky Trivia," the spirit of sisterhood was everywhere. The afternoon culminated in a heart-pounding finale of "Sweet Caroline" and a literal cloud of red confetti—a victory celebration for every woman in the room.
The event may be over, but that strength remains. Remember: you are stronger than you know. Stay bold, stay Gorgeous!, and let’s keep that red spark alive until next year.
