The 2022 Dancing with our Stars gala event is happening at the Mercure Ballarat, the third such event run by the Ballarat Foundation.
The event raises money and awareness for the foundation's suite of programs to help break the cycle of community disadvantage.
It's been a hard couple of months for our dancing stars, with hours and hours of practice and fundraising leading up to the event.
The foundation's chief executive, Andrew Eales, is hopeful they will crack more than $200,000 in donations by the end of the night.
Check out the gallery to see who is there.
