Singer Loui Ryan organised the event at the Cally Hotel to raise money for a cause that is close to her heart.
Ms Ryan and her partner Brant Murrihy spent time in the neonatal intensive care unit with their son Max last year, who sadly passed away.
She said she was overwhelmed by the generosity of people who helped to raise $11,198.
"It's just amazing, look at all the people here," she said.
Ms Ryan said she was extremely grateful to Colin McKenna, who had donated $5000 and the range of businesses who had donated items to be auctioned on the night.
"We're hoping to make it an annual event," she said.
