Step beyond the ordinary and into an era where glamour ruled the night. The Great Gatsby Gala returns to the Packard Proving Grounds for an unforgettable evening of libations, jazz, and 1920s elegance inside one of Michigan’s most iconic automotive landmarks.

This is more than an event. It’s an experience.

From the moment you pass through the gates, you’re transported into the world of the Roaring Twenties. Golden light spilling across the brick pathways. The echo of jazz drifting through historic Packard buildings. The unmistakable feeling that, for one night, nothing exists outside of this moment.

Inside the Repair Garage, the transformation is immediate. Velvet, pearls, bow ties, and beadwork meet the industrial bones of Packard’s legacy, creating a setting that feels both timeless and electric. Sip a crafted cocktail straight out of the Prohibition era. Enjoy a full evening of dancing, celebration, and conversation surrounded by history, elegance, and the kind of atmosphere that stays with you long after the night ends.

The Packard Proving Grounds is proud to welcome Roop Raj of Fox 2 News back as Master of Ceremonies for 2026, bringing the charm and presence that have made him a guest favorite.

Your attendance is more than a night out. Every ticket supports the preservation of the Packard Proving Grounds, helping protect nearly a century of American innovation, design, and history.

Dress to dazzle. Step into the era. And experience Gatsby the way it was meant to be felt.
