Night of Jazz Patron Party and Annual Golf Tournament

Night of Jazz
We are excited to celebrate our 17th annual Night of Jazz patron party, benefitting Kelly Gibson Foundation, on Friday, March 13th, 2026 in The Blue Room at The Roosevelt Hotel!
Each year, patrons of the Kelly Gibson Foundation are invited to our annual Night of Jazz fundraising event that takes place in the springtime. This premier New Orleans affair features cocktails and local music entertainment as well as live and silent auctions. This event was created in 2009 as a way to thank individuals and sponsors who support our passion for change. The following day, select participants compete in Kelly Gibson Foundation’s Annual Golf Tournament at TPC Louisiana. Community support from the Night of Jazz patron party helps us continue our youth athletics, first responder and military programs throughout the year.
We thank everyone who joined us in 2025 for the live music, open premium bar, New Orleans style food, and live auction and silent auctions. Tickets and partnership opportunities for the 2026 Night of Jazz will be available soon! Contact Taylor Capouch (504-400-8013) for a foursome in the 2026 Annual Golf Tournament or to become a sponsor of the fundraising weekend.
