Deja Vu is a retro, costumed, all-night celebration honoring South Florida's finest child advocates. The event is Big Brothers Big Sisters of Broward County's single-largest fundraising event of the year. Our signature event is held at the Bahia Mar Beach Resort in Fort Lauderdale and runs from 6:00pm to midnight. The event's festivities include the dynamic sights and sounds of the 1950s-1980s, cocktails, silent auction, dinner and dancing. All night long (and well into the morning), 400-500 guests experience non-stop entertainment and surprises in the form of musical acts, large scale dance productions and the always-anticipated, top-secret, live headline performer. Previous years have seen the likes of Madonna, Tom Jones and Tina Turner tribute artists.

The purpose of the night is to celebrate 38 years of mentoring success in South Florida through Big Brothers Big Sisters. All of the funds raised that night go directly toward providing the transformational power of mentorship to the children currently in our programs and to help expand the mentoring experience to the hundreds of children still on the waiting list for a Big Brother or Big Sister.
