This annual event is one of Ravinia’s signature fundraisers, bringing together sponsors and a host of golf enthusiasts for a fun-filled outing each spring for more than 25 years!
Proceeds from the Magic of Music Golf Benefit provide vital funding for Ravinia’s Reach Teach Play music education and engagement programs, which serve more than 20,000 students in Chicago and Lake County public schools and communities and open doors where everyone can access and experience the positive impact of music.
The 2025 Magic of Music Golf Benefit is at Lake Shore Country Club, a family-oriented private club situated on 127 acres of rolling meadows along the shores of Lake Michigan.
The day’s events begin with a luncheon inside the club’s beautiful dining room, offering sweeping picturesque views of the lake. Guests will enjoy a performance by students from one of the Reach Teach Play programs and then proceed to a classic golf experience across a championship 18-hole course.
If you are unable to join us for the full day, we invite you to support us with a direct donation or attend the cocktail reception that begins at 5:00 p.m. and will feature music by the Ravinia Jazz Scholars, phenomenal high school student musicians of the Jazz Mentor Program. All funds raised by Magic of Music directly benefit Reach Teach Play.
Cocktail Reception Only tickets are $225.
