The Best Night 2025

Tickets go on sale Friday, Dec. 20th at 10:00am

Celebrating the Best of the Chippewa Valley and the Chippewa Valley Vanguard Awards

This is not your typical awards show. In fact, it's not really an awards show at all. It's a creative, dynamic, and interactive cocktail party — a celebratory evening of food, drinks, music, technology, art, and camaraderie. A chance to celebrate the very best of the Chippewa Valley.

Samples of the Valley’s best food & drink offerings:

• Heavy hors d'oeuvres & tastings from a dozen local establishments
• Two wine, beer, and cocktail cash bars
