Jolly Holiday Dinner: A Festive Gathering in Arizona

We closed out the year with warmth, elegance, and gratitude at our final Arizona gathering of 2025. The Jolly Holiday Dinner, hosted at the iconic member restaurant Vincent’s On Camelback, a true jewel of French culinary excellence in Phoenix.

Our sincere thanks go to Chef Vincent and his exceptional team for an evening that was as refined as it was heartfelt. From the impeccable cuisine to the gracious hospitality, the dinner embodied the very best of French art de vivre and set the perfect tone for a year-end celebration.

More than a festive meal, the evening offered a moment to reflect on a dynamic year of transatlantic collaboration—from innovation and entrepreneurship to community-building across Arizona and the broader Rocky Mountain region. It was also an opportunity to look ahead with optimism as we set our sights on an even more vibrant and ambitious 2026.

A special highlight of the evening was a surprise raffle made possible by our generous partner ’Twas the Night Before… by Cirque du Soleil, thanks to Heidi Grammerstorf. Two lucky guests will be attending their spectacular show in Phoenix later this month—an unforgettable way to close out the year on a high note.

To everyone who joined us and supported our mission throughout 2025: thank you. Your engagement, energy, and commitment continue to strengthen the French-American business and cultural community in Arizona.

From all of us, Happy Holidays, and we look forward to welcoming you again very soon.
