The 2021 Soirée is the Partnership's annual gala celebrating Houston as a truly global city.

After a hiatus in 2020, we are proud to announce that the annual Soirée gala will return for a reimagined experience on Saturday, August 28 at Hotel ZaZa in Houston's Museum District. This year's gala is chaired by Margaret and Thad Hill. 

The 2021 Soirée will boast all that is great about Houston and its place as a truly global city, highlighting its internationality and multiculturalism. As many of you know, Soirée has always been a unique evening featuring exquisite food, entertainment, great networking and more. This year we'll offer that same exceptional experience, with a more traditional dining atmosphere.   

The funds raised through Soirée help the Greater Houston Partnership to fulfill its mission of making Houston the best place to live, work and build a business. Your support of Soirée will contribute to our key initiatives which include growing a strong, diverse economy, ensuring a great quality of life, creating opportunity for all Houstonians with a foundation of race equity and inclusion.

Tickets are reserved for Soirée sponsors and underwriters. Opportunities range from $3,500 - $50,000. For information on supporting Soirée, click here.

Your support can be offered in two ways, as an ordinary business expense to the Greater Houston Partnership, Inc., a 501c6 business organization, or as a charitable contribution to the Greater Houston Partnership Foundation, a 501c3 organization.
