The Batman actor was reduced to tears at the glitzy bash to
introduce the film's director Christopher Nolan, who was to present a
trailer for the The Dark Knight Rises.
But screen hardman Bale found himself unable to speak after watching a montage of Ledger in his role as supervillain The Joker in the second movie, The Dark Knight.
The 38-year-old actor kept his head down as the audience applauded Ledger, only managing to say: "Wow, great to remember Heath at that moment. Wonderful to see Heath Ledger there."
But after taking a moment to compose himself, he was able to return and introduce Nolan, with help from co-stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Gary Oldman.
Ledger won praise for his star turn as the maniac Joker, even taking the Academy Award For Best Supporting Actor a few months after his early death from an overdose of prescription drugs.
Christian has portrayed the caped crusader in all of the three Christopher Nolan movies and struck up a friendship with Ledger on the set of the second instalment The Dark Knight.
Christian was on stage to present the movie montage alongside Gary Oldman and Joseph Gordon-Levitt when he was overwhelmed by emotion. "It's great to see Heath Ledger up there," he said tearfully after the clips were aired.
The 38-year-old Golden Globe winner then stepped away from the microphone and lowered his head to lead a moment of silence for his late friend.
Oscar winner Heath was found dead in his hotel room after a suspected overdose of subscription medication in January 2008.
"Heath was infectious; his death makes me angry because I know our friendship would have blossomed had he not died," Bale said at the time.
