A Surreal Evening of Connection, Creativity, and Community
In this industry, we’re used to being the ones behind the scenes—designing, building, producing, and pouring our energy into helping others shine. But at the recent Events at The Dalí Industry Night, it was our turn to step out from behind the curtain and celebrate us—the planners, the producers, the photographers, the caterers, and creatives who keep the Tampa Bay event scene thriving.
Hosted by UDREAM EVENTS in collaboration with our extraordinary vendor partners, the evening brought together some of the best in the business for a night of inspiration, reconnection, and a touch of surrealist sparkle in one of St. Pete’s most iconic venues.
Setting the Scene: The Dalí Museum
With its striking geodesic glass dome, avant-garde architecture, and world-renowned collection of Salvador Dalí’s work, the Dalí Museum is more than a backdrop—it’s a catalyst for creativity.
As the exclusive event production partner for The Dalí, UDREAM EVENTS was honored to welcome our fellow industry professionals into the space, not as vendors, but as guests.
From cocktails in the galleries to live music under the stars, every moment was designed to celebrate what’s possible when art, hospitality, and production come together.
A Showcase of Tampa Bay’s Best
We couldn’t have pulled off such a seamless, vibrant evening without the help of some of our most trusted vendor partners—each one a leader in their craft and a friend to our team.

A Styled Shoot Within a Celebration

Every detail—from floral touches to camera angles—was a reminder of how The Dalí transforms into an unforgettable setting for weddings, galas, brand events, and private celebrations.
A Reminder of What Makes This Industry Special
More than a styled shoot or a venue showcase, this night was about connection.
It reminded us that behind every flawless timeline, plated dinner, or tear-worthy toast is a community of professionals who care deeply about the work—and each other.
We’re proud to be part of Tampa Bay’s thriving event industry, and even more proud to be creating space for these connections to grow.
