There are still a few last-minute tickets available, so grab one now for yourself or wrangle some co-workers for a festive night on the town. Make our holiday party your holiday party!
For those attending, here’s a rundown of what to expect. If you have questions, please email us at events@geekwire.com. Big thanks to First Tech Federal Credit Union, the GeekWire Gala title sponsor.
When: Thursday, Dec. 11., from 6 to 10 p.m.
Where: Showbox SoDo, 1700 1st Ave S., a few blocks from T-Mobile Park.
Parking: There are several pay lots within a 2-minute walk of the venue. There is also additional parking information here.
Do I need to bring a physical ticket? No. If you are registered, we’ll check your ID at registration, and provide your name badge.
Is there assigned seating at tables? No. The Gala is an open floor plan and a free-flowing party, with a number of activities. It is not a sit-down dinner, and there are no assigned tables.
Are tickets still available? Yes. If you have friends or colleagues who’d like to attend, please encourage them to pre-register on the event site here.
Festivities: The festive night includes food, drinks, DJ, karaoke, custom printed macarons, candy bar, giant LED games, giveaways and more.
Attire: You have the rare license to don cocktail attire in Seattle. Or wear whatever you want. Tuxedos? Sure. Geeky T-shirts? Yep. Even better, break out your fiercest festive fashion. See fashion photos from past GeekWire Galas here.
Food: The tasty appetizers will be heavy, but it’s not dinner. And drinks will include coffee, beer, signature cocktails and more.
Age limit: The GeekWire Gala is a 21+ event. Attendees must have valid ID to enter.
Social media: The official hashtag of the 2024 GeekWire Gala is #GWGala on X, Facebook, and Instagram.
In addition to the party atmosphere, GeekWire and Greater Seattle Partners will once again use the Gala to recognize the region’s “Uncommon Thinkers,” the groundbreaking innovators who are changing the way we work, live and play. Read our profiles of the six honorees.
