Galas

Each year, TBF hosts an annual fundraising gala in South Florida during the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. An evening filled with music, costumes, drinks, and hundreds of prominent members of the angling community, TBF uses this event to fundraise on behalf of TBF, but to also celebrate our community and another successful year of billfish conservation. For information on how to attend, sponsor, or get involved, check out below.
