So… what is a Sneaker Soirée?
It’s where elegance meets individuality — a night of elevated fashion paired with the sneakers that tell your story and keep you comfortable throughout the night. Think cocktail attire, gowns, suits, and the freshest kicks in the room. Whether you’re pulling out classic Jordans, vibrant Dunks, luxury designer sneakers, or your favorite crisp white pair, this is your chance to show up polished and authentically you.

For our 1-Year Anniversary Gala, we’re celebrating community, culture, wellness, and the incredible journey of building something meaningful together at The Aux. And what better way to do that than in a space where creativity and self-expression are welcome from head to toe?
Let these photos be your sneaker inspo. Which pair would you wearing to the soirée? Grab your sneakers and your tickets today!
