Annual gathering of the Kansas City chapter of Meeting Planners International featuring an awards presentation, silent auction and networking.
The MPI Presidential Gala is coming to The Gallery in Kansas City on Thursday, November 19, from 6 PM to 10 PM. It's the annual gathering of the local chapter of Meeting Planners International, a professional organization for the meetings, events, and education sector. If you're in that world, this is the one night a year the whole KC chapter gets together under one roof.
The evening is built around two main things: an awards presentation and a silent auction. The awards recognize achievement across the industry, so it's a night for calling out the work people have put in over the last year. The silent auction runs alongside, with the proceeds going back into the chapter's activities. Between the two, it's a night that looks at what's been done and what's coming next for the local events community.
Beyond the program, the gala is set up as a networking occasion. It's designed to bring together peers from across the sector, the sponsors who support the chapter, and community leaders from around the city. If you're looking to catch up with people you haven't seen since the last big conference or meet the folks running the city's event spaces, this is where they'll be. It's as much about the conversations in between the awards as it is about the ceremony itself.
