DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, September 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
YOU CAN LIVE AGAIN AWARDS GALA BRINGS “A NIGHT OF PRESTIGE” TO HOUSE OF BLUES DALLAS
Star-Studded Evening to Feature LeeAnne Locken, Laz Alonso, Erin Hunter and America’s Got Talent Illusionist Danny Zzzz
You Can Live Again is proud to present the 2026 You Can Live Again Awards Gala – A Night of Prestige, an elegant evening celebrating extraordinary individuals whose stories, leadership, resilience and community impact embody the powerful message that no matter what life brings, you can live again.

The black-tie celebration will take place Sunday, October 11, 2026, at the legendary House of Blues Dallas, bringing together distinguished honorees, business and community leaders, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, media personalities, entertainers and supporters for an unforgettable night of recognition, inspiration and entertainment.

This year’s gala will be co-hosted by LeeAnne Locken, television personality best known for Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Dallas, and acclaimed television and film star Laz Alonso, whose impressive body of work includes the hit series The Boys and major motion pictures including Avatar and Jumping the Broom, among numerous other film and television credits.

Together, Locken and Alonso will guide guests through an evening designed to celebrate achievement while highlighting powerful stories of individuals who have turned obstacles into opportunities and trials into triumphs.

The excitement begins before guests enter the main celebration.

Erin Hunter, host, WFAA’s legendary Good Morning Texas, will host the gala’s Red Carpet, welcoming honorees, celebrity guests, community leaders and special attendees as they arrive for the prestigious evening.

Guests can expect the glamour and excitement of a premier red-carpet experience as the celebration captures the personalities, stories and memorable moments surrounding this year’s honorees.

The evening will also feature a special performance by the astonishing Danny Zzzz, the popular illusionist who has appeared on America’s Got Talent. Known for creating captivating moments through illusion, showmanship and entertainment, Danny Zzzz will bring another level of excitement and wonder to the House of Blues stage.

But at the heart of A Night of Prestige is a mission far greater than entertainment.

The You Can Live Again Awards Gala was created to recognize individuals whose journeys demonstrate courage, perseverance, leadership, excellence and meaningful impact. The honorees represent different industries, backgrounds and life experiences, yet they share a common thread: each has demonstrated the ability to move beyond challenges and use their journey to positively influence others.

The gala reflects the vision of You Can Live Again Founder and CEO Kertrina Dauway, whose mission centers on helping people understand that difficult chapters do not have to define the rest of their lives.

“You Can Live Again is more than a name—it is a message of hope,” said Dauway. “This gala allows us to place a spotlight on remarkable people who remind us what is possible when we refuse to allow adversity to have the final word. We want every person who walks into the room to leave inspired to live, love, heal and thrive.”

In addition to the awards presentations and live entertainment, guests will experience an atmosphere created to encourage connection, celebration and purpose. The event provides an opportunity for leaders and changemakers from across the Dallas-Fort Worth community and beyond to come together, build relationships and celebrate people who are making a difference.

A portion of proceeds from the evening will benefit the Boys & Girls Club and the You Can Live Again Foundation, extending the impact of the celebration beyond the ballroom and into the community.

With its combination of celebrity hosts, inspiring honorees, red-carpet arrivals, extraordinary entertainment and a mission rooted in hope and transformation, the 2026 gala promises to be one of You Can Live Again’s most memorable celebrations to date.
