A Brief History of Black Tie Club International
Black Tie Club
International formed in Toronto, Canada in 1990. The Club was founded
to meet new people who share our common outlook, to have fun and
to enjoy one another's company in a Black Tie setting.
The club's Founder has
always believed that, no matter what you may look like, when you put on a tux
you look adorable! Our dinners are Black Tie Only — with no exceptions.
Chapters throughout North America
Black Tie Club started as an 18-member local group in Toronto. Soon some friends heard about the group and wanted to start a chapter in their own area and be linked to the Toronto group. We now have more than 800 members in 19 local chapters throughout North America (see map below) plus an international chapter.
Local events
Every Black Tie Club chapter has at least two cocktail parties and dinners each year, but many chapters have as many as four dinners for their members each year. All members are sent invitations to their own chapter's cocktail parties and dinners. When members are traveling in any area where another chapter is hosting a dinner, the visiting member can contact the local chapter to enquire whether there is room for them to attend.
Annual events
Black Tie Club invites the members of all its chapters to attend one annual event each year. The location and theme for the event changes from year to year. These four-day affairs are thoroughly enjoyed by all the members who attend. Black Tie Club also occasionally organizes trips for groups of club members to world-wide destinations.
Newsletters
Black Tie Club produces a color newsletter with reports about local chapter dinners, news items, a listing of upcoming dinners and other chapter events and many other interesting articles.
