This spring, Beverly Hills is set to host one of the most anticipated events of the season. The Women’s Cancer Research Fund’s “An Unforgettable Evening” gala will light up the Beverly Hilton Hotel on April 28, 2025, bringing together the brightest names in entertainment and philanthropy.

Headlining the evening’s entertainment is none other than Grammy-winning country group Little Big Town, promising a night of heartfelt music and celebration.

Known for their distinctive harmonies and chart-topping hits, Little Big Town—composed of Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Phillip Sweet, and Jimi Westbrook—has built a remarkable career over more than two decades.

With four No. 1 albums on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart and unforgettable hits like “Pontoon” and “Better Man,” the group continues to captivate audiences across the nation. Their performance at the gala comes just as they gear up for the Little Big Town Summer Tour ‘25, a series of shows across the country’s premier amphitheaters.

The evening will be hosted by comedian and actress Whitney Cummings, known for her quick wit and dynamic presence. Adding a deeply inspirational note to the night, actress Olivia Munn will be honored with the Courage Award.

Diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer in 2023, Munn has openly shared her health journey, encouraging women everywhere to advocate for early detection and prioritize their well-being.

“Over the past year, we cannot think of anyone more deserving to receive our Courage Award than Olivia Munn, a fearless cancer advocate and mother,” said Jamie Tisch, Gala Chair and Women’s Cancer Research Fund co-founder. “Her inspiring cancer story has sparked critical conversations about the importance of cancer screenings.”

For more than 25 years, “An Unforgettable Evening” has remained a cornerstone event for the Women’s Cancer Research Fund, bringing together influential leaders in entertainment, research, and business. The gala raises essential funds for cutting-edge cancer research programs at some of the nation’s top medical and academic institutions. This commitment continues to fuel advancements that benefit countless women and families across the country.

With a blend of moving tributes, world-class performances, and meaningful philanthropy, this year’s gala promises to be a standout occasion on the Hollywood social calendar. Little Big Town’s heartfelt songs, paired with the stories of courage and hope to be shared, will no doubt create a night to remember—one filled with purpose, resilience, and a powerful sense of community.

As anticipation builds for April 28, the “An Unforgettable Evening” gala promises to be a celebration not only of entertainment but also of the incredible strides being made in cancer research. With Little Big Town leading the musical festivities and Whitney Cummings guiding the night with humor and heart, the event is poised to be one of the season’s most memorable occasions.

A night where star power meets purpose—this year’s gala is truly set to live up to its name.
