Paramount Gala 2020
The Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue show and party has moved to March 5, 2021.
Our evening with Trombone Shorty in March will look and feel different than any other performance, party, or gala at the Paramount. (We plan to keep the surprises and fun rolling for the Paramount Anniversary Gala in 2021 after this special event, so stay tuned for details on that later this year!)
In March, you can expect complimentary drinks all night long, New Orleans eats, and post-concert festivities as we fais do-do out of the theatre to continue partying on Congress Avenue.
Don’t wait until 2021 to help support Austin’s most historic theatres. You can shop our online auction to protect the Paramount and Stateside! Bidding is now open on curated packages that keep in mind the new world we find ourselves in, featuring the best spirits, socially distanced experiences, iconic Paramount relics from over a century of great performances in Austin, and more!
Fall Auction bidding open now
Bidding closes:
Friday, October 2 | 4pm CT
With hundreds of events postponed or canceled due to the pandemic—including our biggest fundraising event of the year—this online auction will raise essential funds to ensure we can reopen our doors once it’s safe to gather again. Thank you for your support!
Gala Chair Kathleen Seiders and Auction Co-Chairs Zach Hawkins and Ally Maxey look forward to celebrating with you in the style of the Big Easy (and in person) this March!
Laissez les bons temps rouler, cher!
