ICBA Open
For more than 30 years, the ICBA Open golf tournament has been a highlight of our members’ summer and a great opportunity to network and have some fun. Proceeds from the ICBA Open benefit our Building Stronger Futures initiative that supports bursaries for young men and women pursuing a career in the trades.
We will return in July 2025, and the tournament will include all of the things that make the ICBA Open a great day – a beautiful course, buffet dinner, fun hole activities, the mega-putt, ice cream and other food trucks, and contests.
ICBA Gala 2024 An Evening with Legends Terry Bradshaw and Howie Long
Over the past few years, the ICBA Gala Dinner has become our single biggest event, drawing more than 1,000 people to celebrate construction and hear a unique selection of high-profile speakers.
This year, ICBA welcomed two NFL and sports broadcasting legends to our stage: Terry Bradshaw and Howie Long.
Combined, Terry and Howie have won 5 Super Bowls and 4 Emmy Awards. They are both Pro Football Hall of Fame members.
Thank you to all who attended our 2024 Gala! We are planning our 2025 Gala and hope to see you there!
ICBA Buildex Booth
ICBA’s presence at BUILDEX is always a must-see, with props, actors, and fun giveaways. In 2017, the booth was Star Wars-themed, and featured a live Jedi Knight, the evil Kylo Ren, and the beloved droid BB-8. A year later, ICBA had a construction Iron Throne built as part of our Game of Thrones theme. Jon Snow and Daenarys Targaryen took photos with the lords and ladies of the BUILDEX realm.
In 2020, just before COVID-19 shut down the world, Captain Marvel and Spider-Man hosted the booth and visitors tried out Avengers props like Thor’s hammer, Captain America’s shield, Hulk’s fists, and Thanos’ Infinity Gauntlet. In 2022, the Mandalorian and Baby Yoda greeted guests. In 2023, we built LEGO together.
This past year, we welcomed Deadpool and Wolverine at our booth.
Join us again this year on February 26 and 27 to check our new theme for 2025! Come learn how ICBA can help you build your construction business!
