This year's Starry Knights marks an exciting evolution of the beloved fundraiser. The evening will feature several new surprises—including headlining comedian Hayden Kristal, whose performances have been featured on America's Got Talent, Netflix Is A Joke, and Adult Swim/HBO Max's Tuca & Bertie.
"Starry Knights has always been about bringing our community together to support Camelot's mission," said Camelot Executive Director Mary Hadsall. "This year, we're creating an experience unlike any we've hosted before. We can't wait for our guests to laugh together, celebrate together, and make an incredible impact for the riders and families we serve.”
Tickets go on sale Wednesday, September 2, 2026, and are expected to sell quickly.
