“Party on the Turf” Returns March 21

March 25, 2025 by Adam Miller

METAIRIE, LA – The Jefferson Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce the return of the Black & Gold Gala to the newly renovated Saints Training Facility at the Ochsner Sports Performance Center on Friday, March 21.

The annual gala, presented by CF Industries and hosted by the New Orleans Saints and Pelicans, provides a unique opportunity to “party on the turf” of the Saints practice field. Open to the public, not just Jefferson Chamber members, this unapologetically extravagant event raises funds to support the Jefferson Chamber’s mission.

“We are excited to welcome the community back to the Black & Gold Gala for an unforgettable evening of celebration and support of the Jefferson Chamber,” said Ruth Lawson, President of the Jefferson Chamber. “This is our largest fundraising event of the year, enabling us to continue providing valuable resources, strengthening partnerships, and championing business growth throughout Jefferson Parish.”

Guests can expect a glamorous evening featuring:

  • Live music by The Phunky Monkeys
  • An open bar sponsored by OnPath Credit Union
  • A champagne bar sponsored by Cornerstone Chemical Company, LLC.
  • Gourmet food
  • A silent auction sponsored by Zito Group
  • Casino games sponsored by Bonvenu Bank
  • Live entertainment sponsored by LCMC and Gulf Coast Bank & Trust Co.

The gala’s seamless production is made possible by Event Producers, and guests can capture their glamorous arrival on the red carpet, courtesy of CSW. Lighting, décor, and lounges provided by Peoples Health, Entergy, and CORT Furniture respectively, ensuring a vibrant atmosphere for guests to socialize. Our VIP guests will receive a special gift from Cox, and memories will be captured throughout the evening by our photo sponsor, Atmos.

Gala tickets and silent auction bidding are available on our Black & Gold Gala event website.

Thank you to our media partner, Buisson Creative, for their partnership on this event. Media interested in attending must contact Director of Communications Madison Boudoin at madison@jeffersonchamber.org.
