The Columbia Chamber’s 119th Annual Gala, presented by BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina, promises to be one that Partners will be talking about all year! The Chamber’s Annual Gala is our region’s premier business event with attendees representing some of the area’s most influential corporate leaders, small business owners, young professionals, educators, elected officials, and more. Join us as we celebrate the many achievements of our Partners over the past year and recognize the Ambassador of the Year and other awards.

This year’s gala will be held at Junction 800 in the Vista District and will feature live music by The Embers along with a brief program. Be sure to grab a drink and a bite to eat, but don’t worry about saving your seat! This year’s Gala will no longer feature a formal dinner with assigned seating arrangements, but rather a more relaxed experience with plenty of room to socialize over great food and drinks. We are moving away from the traditional black-tie dress code and are encouraging guests to instead “dress to impress.” Business or cocktail attire is appropriate. Be sure to bring your dancing shoes!

We’re excited to continue the momentum of last year’s retooled Gala and welcome our Partners and community leaders for a night of celebration you won’t want to miss. Be sure to get your tickets soon!
