Event Overview
For the past two consecutive years, Pink Caviar Events has had the honour of styling the prestigious Jack Gibson Medal Night for the Sydney Roosters. This gala evening celebrates the club’s Player of the Year. It pays tribute to the legendary coach Jack Gibson, whose transformative influence on rugby league is deeply woven into the club’s legacy. The event consistently brings together the Roosters’ on‑field and off‑field community to recognise excellence, leadership, and dedication.
Objectives & Brief
The brief was simple yet nuanced: create an atmosphere of sophisticated celebration that honoured both the club’s history and its modern prestige. Pink Caviar was tasked with designing an event that felt exclusive and refined, while also embedding elements that resonated with Roosters culture and heritage.
What is the Jack Gibson Medal?
The Jack Gibson Medal Awards Night is a prestigious event celebrating the outstanding achievements of the Sydney Roosters players, staff, and supporters. Named in honor of the legendary coach Jack Gibson, this gala night highlights the club’s calendar and reflects the rich history and tradition of excellence associated with the Roosters.
Named after one of the most influential coaches in rugby league history, the Jack Gibson Medal is presented annually to the Sydney Roosters’ Player of the Year. Jack Gibson pioneered the modern game and is known for his innovative coaching methods, leadership, and unwavering commitment to excellence. His impact on the Sydney Roosters and the sport as a whole remains legendary, making this award one of the club’s highest honours.
Each year, the award recognises the player who has demonstrated exceptional skill, determination, and leadership throughout the season. It is a testament to the recipient’s dedication to the game and their significant contribution to the Roosters’ success.
2023 Winner: Lindsay Collins
2024 Winner: James Tedesco (for a record 6th time!)




Our Approach & Planning
Our styling strategy fused classic elegance with subtle sporting heritage. We curated the aesthetic using rich textures, a refined colour palette, and premium décor to reflect the spirit of excellence. Key design components included statement centrepieces, bespoke lighting, and branding details that evoked club history in a contemporary way.
Close collaboration with the club ensured every stylistic element, from table layouts to lighting angles, aligned with the event’s tone, emphasising both prestige and community pride.
Event Execution
On the night, the venue was transformed into a setting of prestige and celebration. Elegant floral arrangements and impeccable décor created a refined ambience that honoured the illustrious legacy of Jack Gibson while spotlighting the achievements of the current stars. The immersive styling perfectly complemented the evening’s atmosphere, becoming a memorable showcase of club pride and excellence.
It has been an honour to work on this event for the past two years. Our team worked closely with the Sydney Roosters to create an immersive experience that not only celebrated the players’ achievements but also reflected the club’s commitment to excellence.
The Jack Gibson Medal Awards Night is more than just an awards ceremony; it’s a celebration of the Sydney Roosters’ legacy, the players’ hard work, and the unwavering support of the fans. Each year, this gala night brings together the Roosters community to honor past achievements and look forward to future successes.

The Jack Gibson Medal Nights have become hallmark events in the Roosters calendar, receiving high praise for their ambience and design. The club commended Pink Caviar’s ability to elevate the event visually, creating an immersive experience that not only celebrated the players but also dignified the club’s rich heritage.
