ABOUT THE PAVE GALA
The 28th Annual PAVE Global Gala returns to the magnificent Guastavino's in New York City for an evening of inspiration, connection, and celebration.
The PAVE Gala is the premier year-end celebration of our industry, a cherished tradition where the design community comes together to reconnect, honor exceptional achievement, and shine a light on the future. This year, that light has a theme: Spotlight on the Future of Design. An evening that celebrates outstanding accomplishment while turning toward the emerging talent shaping what comes next.
Every reservation directly supports PAVE's scholarships, mentorship programs, and educational initiatives. Join us on December 10, 2026.
A CELEBRATION UNDER CATALAN VAULTS
GUASTAVINO'S
The PAVE Gala returns to the architectural marvel, Guastavino's, beneath the Queensboro Bridge. This stunning venue showcases Rafael Guastavino's masterful Catalan vaulting technique and carries a rich retail heritage as the former "Bridgemarket" that once housed bustling commerce. Designated a NYC landmark in 1973, this space represents the perfect union of historical significance and dramatic architectural beauty for our annual fundraising celebration.
