Opportunity Place will host “The Harlem Nights | A Casino Night Affair 2025” on Nov. 8 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Home2 Suites by Hilton in Fort Walton Beach.
- The event will raise funds to help homeless families forge their way home while celebrating the ways hope prevailed and compassion changed lives at Opportunity Place. The organization has provided shelter to women, children and families in Okaloosa and Walton Counties for 17 years.
The event will support the mission of ending homelessness in the community while offering attendees a night of gaming, music, dancing and food and cocktails. Guests can experience casino games including blackjack, roulette and craps.
Whether attendees are seasoned card players or looking for a fun night out, the casino games will keep them entertained all night long, according to organizers. Those not interested in gaming can place bids on live and silent auction items.
Attendees are encouraged to wear their best outfit, most comfortable outfit, or throwback style with a 1920s theme. Event organizers describe the fundraiser as an exclusive event and a night to remember.
Tickets for the event cost $108.55 and are available through Eventbrite. All proceeds from tickets are used to support the organization.
Sponsorship opportunities are available for businesses and individuals wanting to support the event, with levels ranging from $500 to $10,000. The deadline for sponsorships is Oct. 8.
