The Margarita Ball was held on November 13 at the VBC South Hall. The event supports 22 local nonprofits by collecting toys from guests. The 2020 ball was cancelled due to COVID-19, so this year marked the 25th year for the event.

Around 3,000 guests attended. Food was catered by 14 local food vendors, with entertainment by Party Nation.

Board member Brandon Price said, “We couldn’t do this without our partnership with the VBC or our restaurant sponsors.” Price also recognized UAH's Sigma Nu Fraternity for the set up and collection of toys. Price continued, “2021 Margarita Ball was easily our most successful. We moved into the larger South Hall to provide additional space for our guests, which everyone loved. We received over 5000 toys for local children. We can't thank our guests enough!” n
