Event Vendors Port Harcourt (EVP) hosted its 2026 Dinner and Award Night on October 13, 2026, at the White Jade Event Centre, Port Harcourt, in a spectacular evening themed “THE BILLIONAIRE’S BALL.”
The annual gathering, which traditionally provides members with an opportunity to unwind, celebrate achievements, and reconnect ahead of the demanding Ember months, lived up to its theme with an impressive display of style, glamour, luxury, opulence, and affluence.
Members turned out in stunning outfits, interpreting the billionaire-inspired dress code in their unique ways and creating an atmosphere of sophistication and grandeur.
The evening featured an exciting lineup of activities, including a Best Dressed competition, musical performances, entertainment, and the presentation of awards to outstanding professionals across various segments of the events industry.
Award categories included DJ of the Year, MC of the Year, Decorator of the Year, and several other recognitions celebrating excellence, creativity, consistency, and professionalism among members. The Next Rated Awards also provided a platform to recognise emerging talents and promising brands making notable strides within the industry.
One of the biggest highlights of the night was the presentation of the highly coveted Premium Vendor of the Year Award, which was won by So Sweet Events, earning the brand one of the evening’s most distinguished honours.
Beyond the glamour and celebration, the occasion also marked an important milestone in the association’s leadership journey with the formal inauguration of the new executive committee. The inauguration was conducted by the Electoral Committee, officially ushering in the new administration led by President Mr. Brown Romeo Affah.
In his remarks, the newly inaugurated President reiterated his commitment to building a more united, progressive, and professionally driven association. He emphasised the importance of members working together, pursuing collective greatness, and continuously improving the quality of their services and professional standards.
The 2026 Dinner and Award Night was therefore more than an evening of glitz and entertainment; it was a celebration of hard work, industry excellence, emerging talents, and the shared vision of a stronger event community.
As Event Vendors Port Harcourt looks ahead, the message from the evening remains clear: Excellence deserves recognition, unity drives progress, and greatness is best achieved together.
