The Annual Awards Gala is our premier event where we reflect on the previous year, recognize the Chamber’s outgoing Chairman of the Board, and honor our annual award recipients. This formal event recognizes the Business of the Year, Nonprofit of the Year, Community Leader of the Year, Young Professional of the Year, Business Leader of the Year, Volunteer of the Year, and other community awards. Attendees also enjoy entertainment and a silent auction. It is an excellent chance to have an elegant evening and celebrate another year of success.
About the Event
Join us for the Gulf Breeze Area Chamber Foundation’s Annual Awards Gala, an unforgettable evening of elegance, entertainment, and celebration in support of Take Stock in Children. This year’s theme, 007, sets the stage for a night of style, sophistication, and intrigue.
Guests will enjoy an exciting lineup of entertainment, along with the chance to try their luck in casino-style games, browse an impressive silent auction, and participate in a 50/50 raffle. Instead of a sit-down dinner, the evening will feature heavy hors d’oeuvres and plenty of time for mingling, networking, and enjoying the atmosphere. A cash bar will also be available, complete with signature cocktails.
The evening will conclude with our Awards Ceremony, honoring outstanding individuals and businesses who are making a difference in our community.
This is a formal event—dress to impress and prepare for a night worthy of James Bond himself.
The event will be held on Friday, January 30 at the Holiday Inn Resort on Pensacola Beach. 14 Via De Luna Drive, Pensacola Beach, Fl.

About the Gulf Breeze Area Chamber Foundation
The Gulf Breeze Area Chamber of Commerce Foundation is the charitable, 501c3 arm of the chamber. Through its mission, and with the support of its own separate board, our foundation awards multiple scholarships every year to support the Gulf Breeze community. The foundation hosts 2 major events each year to raise funds for its projects. Since its creation in 2019, the Foundation has donated over $40,000 to education and military support projects. Our annual awards gala fundraises for a full 4-year college scholarship through the Take Stock in Children Program which supports students Santa Rosa County.
Last year's Annual Awards Gala met this goal and we were able to fully-fund a 4-year scholarship for a Gulf Breeze High School student through the Take Stock in Children Program.
