The Fountain Hills Chamber Gala Awards (CGA), presented by MCO Realty, will take place Friday, May 9, at the We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort.

More than just an event, this annual celebration shines a spotlight on the businesses, leaders and volunteers who make Fountain Hills thrive, according to a press release. This year’s Moulin Rouge-inspired theme, “Spectacular! Spectacular!” promises an evening filled with grandeur, heartfelt recognition and the joy of coming together as a community to honor those who make Fountain Hills an exceptional place to live, work and play.

For decades, the Fountain Hills Chamber of Commerce has honored the businesses, entrepreneurs, nonprofits, educators and volunteers who make this community shine.

The Chamber Gala Awards (CGA), often called “The Oscars of Fountain Hills,” is the Chamber’s way of recognizing those who go above and beyond to make Fountain Hills the best place to work, live and play, the press release said.

“The Chamber Gala Awards is more than a ceremony—it’s a chance to celebrate the heart and soul of Fountain Hills. Every nominee represents dedication, innovation, and a commitment to making our community stronger. We invite everyone to take part in this incredible tradition,” said Betsy LaVoie, Chamber CEO and president.

Join hundreds in honoring the CGA nominees and be one of the first to know the 2025 CGA winners by attending this special occasion.
