This event raises much-needed funds to continue Steve’s important conservation work worldwide. From the plains of Africa to the jungles of Sumatra and the outback of Australia, it provides support to injured and endangered wildlife, their homes, and neighboring communities.
This was Steve’s mission, now it’s ours.
You will immerse yourself in the luxury of the SLS Hotel Beverly Hills and experience the extraordinary cuisine of Chef José Andrés at the Steve Irwin Gala Dinner Los Angeles! Named one of Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in 2012, Chef José Andrés is recognized globally for his creative and unforgettable dining experiences.
