CCA Soirée + After Party 2026

Our annual fundraising event - Join us on Thursday June 4, 2026

At a time when quiet distances have settled into contemporary life, we pause to reflect on how we might find our neighbours once again. This evening invites us to rethink the way our cities are shaped: in designing for comfort and efficiency, have we forgotten connection?

We are pleased to announce that this year’s Soirée will take place under the theme “The future came, and it forgot we are neighbours,” inspired by the exhibition dedicated to Álvaro Siza’s vision of the city.  This exclusive donor gathering invites you to experience the warmth of shared moments, with cocktails, a thoughtfully prepared dinner, and communal conversations that bring people together.  

Following the Soirée, we invite you to stay for the After Party, presented in collaboration with Kollectif. Included with all Soirée tickets, the After Party extends the night beyond the dinner table, welcoming the broader CCA community for music, food, drinks, and a shared evening in the museum.

Please save the date—June 4—and secure your Soirée tickets at a special pre-sale rate available until January 31A limited number of After Party–only tickets are also available now.

Explore our full range of pricing options here.

Additional details about the event will be shared in the coming months.
