Christus Gala 2026

43rd Annual CHRISTUS Gala
Saturday, April 11, 2026 • Beaumont Civic Center, Beaumont, TX • 7 P.M.

The CHRISTUS Southeast Texas Foundation is excited to host the 43rd Annual CHRISTUS Gala on Saturday, April 11, 2026, at the Beaumont Civic Center. This elegant evening promises a night of celebration and philanthropy as we come together to support the vital healthcare services provided by CHRISTUS Southeast Texas.

About the Gala

For more than four decades, the CHRISTUS Gala has been a highlight of the Southeast Texas social calendar, drawing supporters from across the region to champion the health and well-being of our community.

Guests will enjoy a sophisticated evening featuring a gourmet dinner, table wine, dessert, and live entertainment by Martina McBride, one of country music’s most celebrated and respected voices. Her powerful and intimate performance will be a memorable centerpiece of the evening.

Guests can look forward to an unforgettable evening with music from Martina McBride’s iconic catalog, including several of her No. 1 hits such as A Broken Wing, Wild Angels”, I Love You, and Blessed, all of which showcase her powerful voice and timeless appeal.

A multiple GRAMMY® nominee, Martina McBride has sold more than 23 million albums worldwide and earned 20 Top 10 singles, including six No. 1 hits. She has received over 15 major music awards, including four Country Music Association Female Vocalist of the Year honors and three Academy of Country Music Top Female Vocalist awards, along with 14 Gold Records, nine Platinum, three Double Platinum, and two Triple Platinum certifications.

Beyond her remarkable music career, Martina is widely respected for her philanthropic leadership. She has received the Covenant House Beacon of Hope Award and the Harry Chapin Memorial Humanitarian Award for her advocacy on behalf of domestic violence awareness. In 2019, she was honored with the Cliffie Stone Icon Award at the ACM Honors for her lasting impact on country music, and in 2021 unveiled her exhibit, The Power of Her Voice, at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.

Sponsorship Opportunities

Table sponsorships are available for the 2026 Gala and offer premium seating, recognition opportunities, and an exceptional experience for you and your guests.

A limited number of Partner ($3,000) Table Sponsorships are available.

All sponsorships directly support our mission to provide exceptional, compassionate healthcare to individuals and families throughout Southeast Texas.

Individual Tickets

Individual tickets are $400 each and include a reserved seat, dinner, table wine, and dessert.

Individual ticket sales will open in early February.

This is a meaningful way to support the CHRISTUS Southeast Texas Foundation while enjoying an elegant evening with friends, colleagues, and community partners.

Secure Your Spot

Table sponsorships are available now, and we encourage you to reserve early, as the CHRISTUS Gala traditionally sells out each year. Your participation directly supports the life-saving care provided to patients throughout our region.

All donations are tax-deductible. Funds from the Gala will go towards acquiring
life-saving equipment at CHRISTUS Southeast Texas Health System.
