Tickets for the 2015 SPJ Awards Gala are now on sale! This year’s banquet honoring the best of our region’s journalism kicks off at 5:30 p.m. Saturday, June 13, at the Renaissance Seattle Hotel.

Don’t miss it — this is a blast every year and 2015 will be no different. We’ll announce the winners of the 2014 SPJ Northwest Excellence in Journalism contest at the event, and will post the winners online that night.

A few reasons why you should buy your tickets TODAY (other than the fact that the early bird price expires soon…):

• KIRO Radio’s Colleen O’Brien and KIRO 7’s Morgan Palmer will emcee
• We’ll honor the winners of this year’s gala awards: Journalist of the Year, New Journalist of the Year and more
• You can bid on some fantastic items at the gala auction (including a Hawaiian cooking demonstration and feast for 10 people!) to raise money for journalism scholarships (it’s not too late to donate!)
• You’ll hear from this year’s scholarship winners, a.k.a. tomorrow’s award-winning journalists
• You’ll get your new favorite photo of yourself at the SPJ Gala photo booth!
• Lots of good stuff, trust me
