Get ready to experience the magic, music, and unmistakable spirit of New Orleans! Join your fellow APEC attendees for an unforgettable Wednesday Night Social at Generations Hall, where the city’s rich history and vibrant culture set the stage for an evening of connection, celebration, and fun. Whether you’re catching up with colleagues, making new connections, or simply ready to let loose after a full day of conference activities, this is one night you won’t want to miss! We’ll see you at Generations Hall as we celebrate the people, culture, and energy that make New Orleans—and the APEC community—so extraordinary.


Our celebration takes place at Generations Hall, a historic New Orleans landmark originally built in the 1820s as a sugar refinery. Today, this beautifully restored venue blends its industrial roots with the character and charm of the city, featuring historic architecture and artwork celebrating New Orleans’ legendary jazz heritage. It’s the perfect backdrop for an evening that honors the traditions, creativity, and energy that make the New Orleans so special.
