2026 CDBIA Installation and Awards Banquet

December 1, 2026 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM (EST)

Description

The Charlotte-DeSoto Building Industry Association invites you to our annual Installation Banquet & Awards Celebration on Tuesday, December 1, 2026, at Visani Restaurant & Theater in Port Charlotte. The evening will celebrate the accomplishments of association members, recognize its Partners in Progress, and officially install the 2027 Board of Directors and Executive Committee.

The highlight of the evening will be the installation of Jennifer Cirella as CDBIA’s 2027 President, marking the beginning of a new year of leadership and service to the building industry and the communities of Charlotte and DeSoto counties.

Under the theme Learn. Build. Lead., the banquet will bring together builders, contractors, industry professionals and business partners to celebrate the people and organizations who help strengthen the local building industry.

“This evening is about recognizing the people who make our association strong,” said CDBIA leadership. “Our members contribute their time, talent and expertise not only to their businesses, but also to the future of our industry and our community. The Installation Banquet gives us an opportunity to celebrate those contributions while welcoming the leaders who will help guide CDBIA into 2027.”
