Vegas’ Night to Give Back

Created in 2013 by Cheryl Daro & Mark Shunock, Mondays Dark is Vegas’ premiere variety show for a cause. Twice a month, Mondays Dark gathers an eclectic cast of guests—including musical acts and stars from Hollywood and The Strip—for 90 minutes of chat, entertainment and a lot of laughs.

The mission of Mondays Dark is to raise $10K in 90 minutes. The $20 variety show has become one of the hottest tickets in town and the list of charities waiting to partner with Mondays Dark continues to grow. Partnering with more than 200 local organizations, Mondays Dark has raised over 2 million dollars with every penny staying here in Las Vegas.

Mondays Dark has been named “Best of the City” and “Best of Vegas” numerous times over its existence. In addition, Shunock received the Angel Award for Cultural Advocate/Entertainer of the Year Award from Vegas Inc., Best Philanthropist Award from LV Review Journal, as well as The Impact Award from the Association of Fundraising Professionals Las Vegas Chapter.

Every “thank you” tells a story. Together, you’ve helped write 21 of them this year. 💜

From January’s first show to the moments still ahead, 2026 has been about showing up, giving back, and celebrating the organizations making a difference in our community.

We’re especially grateful to the industry professionals, performers, production teams, venues, sponsors, volunteers, and everyone who has shared their time, talent, and support to make each show possible. Mondays Dark wouldn’t be what it is without you.

Thirteen years. More than $2 million raised for local charities. And countless reasons to keep going.

Now, we’re less than 60 days away from the night that brings it all together.

Join Mark and the Mondays Dark team on December 14 at The Palazzo Theater as we celebrate our 13th anniversary, $210,000 donated to our community in 2026, and the next 21 charity partners joining us for 2027.

For the first time since it all began 13 years ago, Mondays Dark returns to the Las Vegas Strip. Let’s fill the theater with the people who make it all possible.
