Get Ready for an Exciting 2025 Nurses Ball on ‘General Hospital’ with Music, Laughter, Drama, and Surprises

HOLLYWOOD — The Nurses Ball is once again underway on “General Hospital.” That means you can buckle up for some big surprises!

For over three decades, the Nurses Ball has been a gathering that consistently astounds its audience. This longstanding tradition is known for delivering unexpected twists and turns, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats. However, the event’s origins are rooted in a noble cause – the fight against HIV and AIDS.

The character Lucy Coe, played by Lynn Herring, once again takes the stage to steer the Nurses Ball.

This “General Hospital” fan favorite weeklong event always seems to set new things in motion – for better or for worse!

“This year, it’s pretty smooth sailing until the very end and then everything falls apart,” said executive producer Frank Valentini.

Actress Herring expressed her immense enthusiasm for the upcoming ball, highlighting the anticipation of the thrilling events that will transpire. She hinted at significant moments that will shake things up and leave the audience in awe. According to her, the upcoming ball promises intense and unforgettable surprises.

Despite its long history of dazzling performances, actress Lisa LoCicero, best known for portraying Olivia Quartermaine, believes that this year’s Nurses Ball will surpass all expectations. She hinted at an unprecedented level of drama and suspense that will captivate viewers like never before. The excitement surrounding the event is palpable, setting the stage for an unforgettable spectacle.

“I can’t give it away but it’s pretty good,” added Valentini.

Valentini would say you can expect a couple of giant story reveals – and one big casting surprise. What else is around the corner?

“I’d say you are in for a big surprise with people who are very close to me. And I think you are going to see me getting a lot closer to certain characters after the Nurses Ball,” said Braedyn Bruner, who plays Emma Scorpio-Drake.

And at the Nurses Ball, you can always expect the unexpected.

We’ve already seen the show’s violin virtuoso take the stage. Actor Giovanni Mazza, who plays Gio Palmieri, performed an original song he released when he was just 12.

And Kristina Wagner is involved in a western number with her co-stars.

“We are doing things out of our comfort zone and, you know, we are doing things that might even be a little out of character,” said Wagner. “It’s a fun opportunity for us to just have a good time.”

The Nurses Ball fun and drama continues all week on ABC Daytime. “General Hospital” airs weekdays on ABC and next day on Hulu.

The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of ABC and this ABC station.
