Description

Chamber Day at City Hall 
📆 Tuesday, October 20, 2026  | 🕛 8:30 AM - 4:00 PM
📍 Legacy Room at Houston City Hall | 901 Bagby St., Houston, TX 77002



For the first time, the Greater Houston LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce is heading to Houston City Hall for a full day of access, advocacy and connection—and we want you there!

We extend our appreciation to City Council Member Mario Castillo for hosting the Chamber’s first-ever Day at City Hall.

Chamber Day at City Hall will give members an opportunity to engage directly with City Council Members and representatives from City departments, learn more about the work of local government and strengthen relationships with the decision-makers whose actions impact our businesses, our lives and our community.

The day will include visits with Council Members and City departments, lunch and attendance at the afternoon public session, where the Chamber will be recognized.


Why Attend?

Local government makes decisions every day that affect businesses and communities across Houston. Chamber Day at City Hall brings our members closer to that process and creates meaningful opportunities to:

  • Connect with City leaders and decision-makers
  • Learn how City government and departments support Houston businesses
  • Raise the visibility of LGBTQ+ and allied businesses
  • Strengthen relationships between Chamber members and local government
  • See City government in action during the public session

Connecting members with the people shaping our region is an important benefit of Chamber membership. This first-ever event is another way the Chamber is helping ensure our members are informed, engaged and represented in the conversations that matter.

Schedule

8:30 a.m. – Arrival and Check-In
Morning – Kick-Off / Visits with Council Members and City Departments
Midday – Program and Lunch
Afternoon – Public Session

Additional schedule details will be shared with registered attendees.
