Black Tie · November 2026 · Palm Beach County
One night. One hundred. One room.
The Palm Beach Influence 100 Gala is the evening the county’s most consequential businesses and the people who built them stop competing for attention and share a room. Floor-length gowns, black tie, a live reveal of the 2026 honorees, and a guest list assembled the way the list itself is: deliberately.
Some rooms you attend. This is one you want to be seen in.

The evening
How the night unfolds.
Arrivals
The Champagne Reception
Step out of the car and into the room everyone in Palm Beach County will be talking about Monday morning. Champagne, a step-and-repeat, and the kind of introductions that usually take six months to arrange.
Dinner
A Seated Evening
A plated dinner where the seating chart is the real luxury. Founders beside financiers, developers beside the institutions funding them — arranged with intent, not alphabetically.
The Ceremony
The 100, Revealed
The Palm Beach Influence 100 for 2026, announced from the stage and honored one by one. For the businesses named, it is the moment the year gets defined.
Late
The After
The jackets come off, the band comes on, and the conversations that matter most start after the program ends. They always do.
Who is in the room
The shortest distance between you and Palm Beach County’s decision-makers.

One dinner. A hundred businesses that move the county. Do the math on what that would cost you in meetings.
Founders and CEOs of the county’s defining companies
Private capital, family offices, and wealth advisors
