Hartlepool and District Referees Association is holding a 70th anniversary dinner in support of a local charity.
It will be held at the Mayfair Centre, Hartlepool, on September 20 and proceeds will go towards Hartlepool and District Hospice.
Malcolm Lancaster, assistant secretary of the association, said he hoped it would be well supported by people in the professional and non-professional game.
"The members felt with the new hospice under development, it was very appropriate to donate all the money raised to them," he said.
Senior fundraiser at Hartlepool and District Hospice, Kevin Kidd, said it was an honour to be chosen as the nominated charity.
He said: "Without support of local people and organisations, the hospice would be unable to provide specialist care for the people of Hartlepool and east Durham."
Tickets, priced £17.50, can be booked by calling (01429) 282 100.
