Description

🎲 Ladies and gentlemen, high rollers and heavy hitters - it’s time to take your seat at the most prestigious table in St. Charles. 🥂

Registration is officially OPEN for the 2026 Charlemagne Awards, an evening where ambition sparkles brighter than the chandeliers and excellence doesn’t just attend… it gets crowned. This is not just another dinner. This is THE night.

👑 The Crown Jewel of the Evening: At the heart of this Monte Carlo-inspired celebration is the Charlemagne Lifetime Achievement Award - the most distinguished honor presented by the St. Charles Area Chamber of Commerce.  This award recognizes an individual whose leadership, service, and impact have shaped our business community in lasting and meaningful ways. It is reserved for those whose legacy defines excellence - visionaries who have built, strengthened, and elevated the St. Charles region over decades of dedication. Alongside this prestigious honor, we will celebrate outstanding businesses and community leaders across multiple award categories who help our community thrive. It’s a night where reputations are honored, legacies are cemented, and applause is earned.

Registration closes April 24th - No Exceptions!

*Space is limited and registration will automatically close once our maximum capacity is hit. To ensure you are a part of this year's event, please register early as we cannot expand the guest list beyond our venue's capacity.
