Tropical Oasis
TDG intends to create a magical, tropical oasis from the moment guests enter. A multi-lingual entrance takes inspiration from Caribbean architecture. It features vibrant colors and textured surfaces. This design fully immerses guests in a rich theme. Signature cocktails will flow in the rain forest oasis adorned with live Flamingos, Cockatoos, and South American Macaws. To begin the Gala, there will be a real Junkanoo Parade. This parade will welcome guests, “Beyond the Ballroom.” They will enter the beautiful Tropical Elegance theme. Right after the gala, guests will enjoy a live concert with a special guest entertainer. This will be followed by the high energy of DJ Irie in the South Florida beach-themed Studio 100.
“ I am excited to be a part of the 100 Black Men of America Inc.’s signature Gala. Our team has worked hard on developing a concept that is beyond your traditional hotel ballroom black tie affair. We work hard to provide unparalleled ideas and implementation that address the needs of our dynamic and diverse clients” states Dionne Anderson, CEO of TDG.
“TDG are genuine innovators who are helping us helping us implement our creative visions for this year’s “A Night of Tropical Elegance”. Their artistic innovation “Beyond the Ballroom” concept mirrors our rapidly changing needs of our dynamic and diverse membership base”. We look forward to some of the surprise initiatives that TDG launches that night” states, Charmaine Gatlin, Sr. VP of Events and Operations for 100 Black Men of America Inc.
