About this event
The Answer Gala is Pennington Biomedical Research Foundation's signature benefit evening, and the 2027 edition carries a "Game Night: Play for a Purpose" theme. Held at L'Auberge Casino & Hotel in Baton Rouge and beginning at 5:30 PM, the gala brings together a community of leaders, partners, and advocates for an evening of connection, celebration, and impact.
Beyond the trivia and games that give the night its theme, guests can take part in an auction and enjoy an atmosphere built around strategy, collaboration, and bold thinking. The evening doubles as a networking event for community leaders while giving everyone in the room a meaningful role in shaping what comes next for health research.
Proceeds support Pennington Biomedical's work on obesity, diabetes, nutrition, metabolism, brain health, and chronic-disease prevention, all aimed at helping people live longer, healthier, and better lives. Sponsorships, tables, and individual tickets are offered across several tiers; pricing is announced closer to the event, so interested guests should watch the event page. Directions to the casino venue are provided on the site.
