Organised by Panebianco Catering Service, the evening was a resounding success, from the delicious dinner to the vibrant atmosphere.

Guests were entertained by the Gioconda orchestra, as well as the election of Miss Albion Hall.

Fourteen girls vied for the title, with 16-year-old Silvana Dalessandro winning after having been crowned Miss Northern Suburbs the week before.

The evening’s proceeds went to funds for the Vajont dam disaster in Italy.
