Best of C-VILLE Party 2026

The votes are in, the winners are crowned, and now it's time to sparkle. Join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating the Best of C-VILLE—the people, places, and businesses that set the gold standard in our community.
Think glitter. Think glamour. Think champagne shimmer, golden trophies, and a room full of Charlottesville's brightest stars. Whether you're dressed in sequins, metallics, velvet, or show up covered in carats, this is your night to bask in the glow. With tunes from the city's best bands, a few surprises, and plenty of reasons to raise a glass, it's going to be pure gold.
What it is: This is a private celebration for Best of C-VILLE winners, runners-up, sponsors, staff, and invited guests. No tickets will be sold in advance or at the gate. Admission requires an Eventbrite invite with a unique QR code. This is a 21+ event. No pets (not even one dressed in gold lamé) and no children, including babies.

All invites must be claimed by Friday, August 21, so that we can have a headcount for the venue. Passes are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Once we hit capacity, that's it—claim your invite today.
