Join us this year on World Down Syndrome Day, March 21, 2026, at our biggest event of the year - the “i Have a Voice” Gala! World Down Syndrome Day is an annual global day of awareness that raises awareness of Down syndrome and educates the public on the need for full inclusion and acceptance of people with Down syndrome. We are excited to celebrate and advocate for our participants to raise crucial funding for GiGi’s educational, therapeutic and career development programs.
Held again this year at the iconic Country Music Hall of Fame, the evening will kick off at 6:00pm, and guests will enjoy cocktails, silent and live auctions, performances, and dinner—all highlighting the voices of our incredible community.
This year’s attire, Blue Jeans & Ballgowns, calls for CMA-worthy outfits - think of sparkly boots with ballgowns or bolo ties with sports coats! We would love to see you incorporate the colors associated with Down syndrome awareness – blue and yellow. Tickets are selling fast, and we expect to sell out, so grab yours today. For questions and more information about the Gala, contact Tara Patil at tpatil@gigisplayhouse.org.
