Get a sneak peak at the latest fashions and support the fight against breast cancer at the sixth annual Rock'n the Runway show in Grand Rapids.

Rock'n the Runway is part of the Girl Get Your Fight Back organization, a non-profit that works with the fashion community to raise breast cancer awareness and empower women to take charge of their health.

At the fashion event, breast cancer survivors and fighters get makeovers, put on outfits created by local shops, and strut their stuff down the runway. There's even professional photographers to create the real runway effect

A big portion of ticket sales go towards health education and breast cancer research.

Rock'n the Runway is happening at the William C. Abney Auditorium. The pink carpet will open at 6 p.m. and the show will start at 7.

Tickets cost $20 for general admission and $40 for VIP in advance, otherwise tickets cost $25 and $45 at the door.
