2010 Black Tie Dinner

The 29th Black Tie Dinner is November 6, 2010. The program theme this year is "standSTRONG" - celebrating the people and organizations that lead our progress and are a reminder to stay strong as we face the work yet to be done! Be a Table Captain or Sponsor and organize your friends, family and colleagues in support of the North Texas GLBT community and enjoy "the best party in DFW!" The dinner this year will be held in the LoneStar Ballroom at the Sheraton Dallas Hotel.

About our Program

Each year, up to 3,000 guests experience this “premier event of empowerment, education and entertainment” supporting GLBT organizations in the North Texas community and Black Tie Dinner’s National Beneficiary, the Human Rights Campaign Foundation.

The Saturday evening Dinner Program includes local and national figures, entertainment, recognition rewards, auctions and more. Pre Dinner receptions and the AfterBlack dance party add to the evening’s festivities. Friday, the evening before the Dinner, Sponsors, Table Captains and their guests are invited to B4Black, an exciting auction preview party with a program all its own. The newly remodeled Dallas Sheraton provides special rates (and fun surprises in 2010) for attendees creating a weekend event atmosphere in the center of Dallas’ Arts and Business District.
