Join us for one of the most congenial and collegial spaces at the MLA Convention at
New Orleans’ glamorous
Le Pavillon Hotel.
Our annual MLA Awards Dinner in New Orleans will be a wonderful night!
Saturday, January 11
Join us as we honor our new Distinguished Scholars, Judith Pascoe and Kelvin Everest, as well as new Pforzheimer and Essay Award winners.
During the Reception, we will be raffling off signed copies of books, generously donated by their authors, and other coveted items! Purchase tickets in person at our cocktail hour until 7:30PM!
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.
This year, we’re pleased to offer dinner tickets at a discounted price to those who purchase a 2025 membership at the same time. Once you’ve added a membership to your cart along with your banquet ticket(s), simply use discount code “2025MEMBER” 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.
