K-SAA/MLA AWARDS DINNER

Join us for one of the most congenial and collegial spaces at the MLA Convention at Philadelphia’s glamorous Notary Hotel.

Our cash bar will be open to all guests 21 and over from 6:30-8:00PM, and those wishing to remain for dinner should purchase tickets in advance (see below).

We'll honor our Pforzheimer awardees, the annual Essay Prize winner, and this year’s beloved Distinguished Scholars, Deidre Lynch and Karen Swann. We would also like to celebrate alongside new faces, including grad students and contingent faculty (for whom discounted tickets are available).

This year, we’re pleased to offer dinner tickets at a discounted price to those who purchase a 2024 membership at the same time. Once you’ve added a membership to your cart along with your banquet ticket(s), simply use discount code “2024MEMBER” when you check out. You will be asked to select your preferred meal option when adding a ticket to your cart. All meal options include a three-course meal and free-flowing red and white wine!

If you wish to buy multiple tickets, you will need to add each ticket to your cart (and select its corresponding meal options) individually. When you are ready to check out, click the shopping cart icon at the top right corner of our website header. You will be charged the total price of all items in your cart.
