GitHub's annual black-tie charity event, the OctoGala, is set to occur on September 19 at the Fairmont Hotel, with ticket prices at $100 for singles and $175 for couples. Proceeds from the event will benefit Year Up, an organization dedicated to equipping young adults from low-income and marginalized communities with the necessary technical and communication skills for professional success. The event aligns with GitHub's mission of enhancing collaborative work, and attendees can look forward to a night of dancing and drinks in the Crown Room, which offers panoramic views of San Francisco. Doors open at 8:00 PM, and the festivities will conclude at midnight, with tickets available on Tito.io.
