Your Night to Attend

To accommodate more finalists, we’re holding the Winners Ball across two nights. This way we can avoid jamming everything into one ultra-long night of announcing winner after winner after winner.

Half the categories are scheduled on Wednesday 8/20 and the rest on Thursday 8/21. To see which night your category is being announced, see the table on the finalists page.

If for some reason you absolutely cannot make it on your assigned night, please let us know right away. Depending on how ticket sales progress, we may be able to change the night your category is announced.

Live Entertainment

We are flying in Dan Altano to entertain us and help us announce the winners. You don’t want to miss this funny man!

Dan Altano has carved a name for himself in the national comedy scene by narrating his life story with brutal honesty, wit, and heart. Raised in New Jersey, Dan headlines clubs and theaters across the country. Dan’s new Album, Stand-Up Dad, debuted at #1 on the iTunes Comedy Charts and is currently played on constant rotation on Sirius XM radio. He was recently named Breakout Artist of the Year by the New York Comedy Festival.

Who Should Come?

Many companies use this special night to reward their hard working employees.

Seating is limited though. Please respect our request of only buying tickets for finalist company employees and their spouses. Unfortunately this means no family members, friends, neighbors, colleagues, clients, or kids.

What to Wear

It’s a special night and you deserve the recognition for making it as an Orlando’s Best Award Finalist. Go ahead, dress up in the best you’ve got!

Each year we see some fantastic gowns, suits, and even tuxedos. This will be a night to remember, for sure!

Special Thanks to Our Annual Sponsors

We couldn’t run these awards without our generous Annual Sponsors. Note, sponsoring Orlando’s Best does not influence the final results. In other words, you cannot pay to win Orlando’s Best. These companies are simply generous and supportive of Orlando’s Best, win or not.

Please consider sponsoring us this year. You’ll even get discounts on V.I.P. tickets to this year’s Winners Ball!

Purchase Your Tickets

NOTE: Even with the large venue and two nights, there are not enough seats for every finalist to attend. We suggest purchasing your tickets as soon as you can because we expect to sell out again this year.
