The 2024 National NRA Foundation Banquet and Auction will be the official kick-off event to the NRA’s 153rd Annual Meetings and Exhibits. The Foundation’s Banquet and Auction will take place at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, Hall A on May 16, 2024, at 5 PM.

There will be a variety of games, raffles, and auctions featuring exotic hunts and exclusive merchandise. Funds raised at the attendee-favorite event benefit The NRA Foundation, America’s leading charitable organization in support of the shooting sports, which has funded over 60,000 grants impacting millions since its inception.

This year’s auction is filled with limited edition firearms, incredible domestic and international hunting packages, and jaw-dropping artwork, all generously donated! You won’t find items anywhere like it, even if you have been to a Friends of NRA event before.
