A Star Studded Line Up
The stage was set beautifully with a huge circular display bearing the Foundation name suspended overhead. Jill Scott and Kyle Walker guided the night with charm, jokes and flawless timing. The atmosphere was electric. Think sparkling black ties, football shirts sneaked under blazers and guests laughing mid-toast.
One of our favourite live moments featured Julie McKnight on stage. She lit up the room with powerhouse vocals, while Arkaid delivered a DJ set that had every table swaying along between courses. When it comes to event energy, this night was the gold standard.
The whole event was organised by the amazing team at Road3 – check out their website https://www.road3.co.uk/
Dinner, Drinks and a Live Auction
Tables filled with candles, wine and plates arriving in perfect rhythm set the tone for a smooth, elegant dinner service. Plates were whisked through the crowds with grace and plenty of smiles. The food looked like something you would not even want to touch because it was too pretty, but trust us… everyone tucked in.
Darren Proctor took the mic for a fast paced live auction and watching the bids fly was entertainment on its own. Hands shot up, tables cheered each other on and a few competitive streaks showed themselves in the best way possible.
Lights, Music and Dancefloor Magic
When the main stage switched into party mode, nobody held back. The dance floor filled under shifting beams of teal and violet lights. Drinks circulated freely, shot glasses clinked and laughter rolled around the room like background music.
Moments like a guest proudly showing off a football shirt, whole tables raising shooters to the lens and beaming smiles across the room really showed why we love nights like this. Capturing people lost in the moment is what we live for at ER Event Photography. You give us energy, we give you memories.
Looking Back
The Michael Carrick Foundation Dinner 2025 was everything you want from a charity celebration. Glamour with heart. Laughter with purpose. A room full of good people doing something good together. If you are planning a corporate charity dinner and need an Event Photographer Manchester who captures the atmosphere as much as the action, we would love to be there.
