39th Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Breakfast presented by Florida Blue

Come celebrate the life, legacy, and service of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on Friday, January 16, 2026, at the 39th Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Breakfast, presented by Florida Blue, at the Prime F. Osborn III Convention Center.

Doors to the Prime F. Osborn III Convention Center will open at 6:15 a.m. Guests are invited to begin networking upon arrival, with opportunities to connect, engage with community partners, and explore ways to get involved. The Exhibition Hall will open and buffet-style breakfast will be available beginning at 7:00 a.m. The formal program will begin promptly at 8:00 a.m., featuring distinguished local leaders, meaningful performances, and a special celebration of the 2026 Tomorrow’s Leaders contest winners, presented by VyStar Credit Union.

Tomorrow’s Leaders, presented by VyStar Credit Union, is an impactful initiative that honors exceptional students in our community who exemplify Dr. King’s values of leadership, service, and civic responsibility. Students express these themes through creative formats at each grade level: elementary students submit written essays, middle school students create visual art pieces, and high school students compose and recite original poetry. We are proud to recognize these inspiring young leaders and celebrate their outstanding contributions to our community.
