Paramount Gala 2023
Grammy-award-winning The Mavericks headline our largest fundraising event of the year to support Austin’s beloved historic theatres. We hope you’ll join us for Rockabilly Noches, an evening inspired by the eclectic sounds of The Mavericks and their incredible 30-year career. This evening celebrates all the glam and mid-century influences of the band, including Elvis and Roy Orbison, as well as the Hispanic and Latinx heritage The Mavericks draw inspiration from today.
The party starts under the starry Texas sky and flashing lights of our iconic marquee with music by the Modern Don Juans. You’ll head inside the Paramount for an unforgettable show by The Mavericks. Then, the night continues outside where we have shut down Congress Avenue to dine, dance, and party over two blocks of Austin’s main street with music stylings by DJ Boi Orbison.
Attire: Rockabilly inspired looks! Anything goes — from the 40s and 50s, ranging from iconic embroidered and rhinestone suits to pinup fashion. Check back soon for a Pinterest to help plan the perfect outfit!

“Any time I need a mood lift, or an excuse to dance with reckless abandon, I crank up a Mavericks album and sing along at the top of my lungs. The only thing that can that top that cathartic press of the reset button is seeing them live and on stage! I cannot wait to join y’all at the Paramount for a night of soaring vocals, impeccable musicianship, infectious melodies, and a whole lot of hip shaking!”

Your support during this sell-out fundraiser directly helps protect two of Austin’s oldest venues – the Paramount and Stateside Theatres. When you purchase a tax-deductible package or tickets, you help:
- advance world-class, diverse programming across all genres – music, comedy, spoken word, drag, and so much more
- serve more than 35,000 Central Texas students through arts programs offered in-person and virtual
- support historic preservation projects to protect Austin’s most historic stages
- pay artists and performers helping bring more than 600 shows and events to downtown Austin
This event historically sells out, and helps raise funds through ticket sales, custom curated silent and live auctions where exclusive experiences and packages are created with you in mind, and other interactive donation opportunities. This event always highlights and celebrates live performance at the heart of what we do. Past headliners have included: Gary Clark Jr, Earth Wind & Fire, Trombone Shorty, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Gipsy Kings, Chris Isaak, Patty Griffin, Elvis Costello and Lyle Lovett. (And that’s just to name a few of our most recent headliners for this special tradition lasting more than 20 years!)
Thank you to our community of gala chairs, committee members, auction donors, ticket donors, century club members, and volunteers who make this event possible.
Thank You to Our Partners
