SUMMARY:💗 Pink Skies Set to Take Over Birmingham Rooftop as the AKA South Eastern Regional Conference Winds Down (May 2)
DESCRIPTION:Thousands of women from Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority\, Inc. will gather in Birmingham for the 94th South Eastern Regional Conference\, scheduled for April 29 through May 2\, 2026. The conference will welcome members from across AKA’s South Eastern Region—Alabama\, Mississippi\, and Tennessee—with attendance expected to reach into the thousands as sorority sisters from across the three-state region arrive in the Magic City for several days of sisterhood\, service\, and celebration. \nAs conferences like this one visit the area attendees are often looking for ways to unwind after full days of programming. Pink Skies\, hosted by Phaith “DJ Chocolate” Frazier\, is one of those experiences. \nPositioned as an unofficial nightcap for conference attendees\, Pink Skies is open not only to sorority members but to anyone seeking a night filled with good music and elevated energy at one of the city’s signature rooftop atmospheres. DJ Chocolate\, a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority\, Inc.\, will also be in the mix throughout the weekend\, performing at several official regional conference events. \nScreenshotA Soundtrack for the Moment \nAt the heart of the night is Nadia Tellis\, a talented vocalist known for her soulful sound and dynamic live performances across Alabama. Her ability to blend R&B\, soul\, and contemporary hits makes her the perfect complement to the evening’s aesthetic. \nWhile Nadia delivers the live entertainment\, DJ Chocolate will do what she does best—set the tone. Known for her ability to read a room and build an experience\, she’s curating a musical journey that moves seamlessly from smooth grooves to high-energy favorites. \n \nPowered by Women of AKA \nOne of the most unique elements of Pink Skies is the foundation behind it. \nThe event is powered by a collective of women—all members of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority\, Inc.—bringing their talents together to create something intentional and elevated: \n\nPhaith “DJ Chocolate” Frazier – Founder of Grown and Greek® and the Grown and Greek Podcast\, DJ Chocolate is the architect of the event and will set the vibe for the night.\nDJ Blaze – First responder and vibe provider will kick the night off\nNadia Tellis – A multi-talented creative working across the entertainment and fashion industries as a makeup artist and live performer\, Nadia—along with her band—will deliver the perfect show for a nightcap experience.\nBernadine Birdsong – Owner of Michael’s Restaurant and Bar Sebastian\, adds exceptional hospitality rooted in Birmingham excellence.\nMarika N. Johnson – Award-winning photojournalist and creator of Musically Speaking\, a popular event-based photography platform\, Marika will be on site capturing the night through still imagery.\n\nIn addition\, a strong host committee made up of sorority members is helping bring the vision to life\, ensuring the event reflects both the culture and the moment. \nDivine Nine Energy on the Rooftop \nPink Skies will also bring together members from across the Divine Nine\, with local fraternity members expected to be in attendance. It’s a cross-organizational celebration—one rooted in connection\, culture\, and community. \n \nAdding to the night’s energy\, B’Ham Men’s Fashion Week visionary Mr. Perry Varner is also expected to be in attendance\, along with models\, patrons\, and special invited guests\, following his Saturday night fashion event at WorkPlay. Their presence will bring an additional layer of style and cultural influence to the Pink Skies experience. Mr. Varner is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity\, Inc. \n \nPlus Pink Inspired Cocktails \nAdding to the elevated experience\, guests can enjoy a selection of pink-inspired signature cocktails curated by Mr. Greg Freeman\, who is also member of a Divine Nine Organization (Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity\, Inc.). The specialty cocktails will feature Corazón Tequila with creations like the Pink Skies Paloma\, Velvet Sky Margarita\, and Runway Rosé Spritz. The cocktail lineup not only complements the rooftop aesthetic but also adds a refined\, celebratory touch to the evening’s overall vibe. \nPrelude to Vegas \nPink Skies also carries a bigger energy. \nThe event is being billed as a “Prelude to Vegas\,” as many regional attendees prepare to travel to Las Vegas later this summer for the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority\, Inc. Boule—the organization’s international conference. That forward-looking energy adds another layer to the night. \n“This isn’t just the end of a weekend—it’s the beginning of what’s next\,” says DJ Chocolate. “As we look ahead to Las Vegas\, I wanted to create something here that not only caters to my sorority sisters but also embraces the community at large. I believe Pink Skies will be the perfect send-off as we prepare for Boule later this summer.” \nDJ Chocolate will carry that same energy west\, performing in Las Vegas as she teams up with sorority members from Houston and Las Vegas for another signature event. \nThe Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas Day Party is set for Sunday\, July 19\, 2026\, from 4 PM to 10 PM at Medusa Nightclub\, located at 3355 S. Procyon Avenue in Las Vegas. Hosted by Las Vegas resident and AKA member Nik@Nite\, with music by DJ Chocolate\, the event is powered by Pinkwater Promotions—also owned by a sorority sister out of Houston\, Texas.

Together\, the two additions promise to make the 2026 edition one of the most memorable in the event’s history. \n \nKnown for showcasing Birmingham’s culinary excellence\, organizers have selected Chef Lamar Lockett to help create an elevated dining experience that reflects this year’s international theme\, “Une Soirée Parisienne – La Belle Époque.” The theme celebrates one of Paris’ most elegant eras\, encouraging guests to embrace timeless all-white fashion while enjoying exceptional cuisine\, conversation\, and entertainment beneath the stars. \nOne of the traditions that makes Dîner en Blanc unlike any other event is the mystery surrounding its location. Guests first gather at designated departure points before being escorted by volunteers to the undisclosed venue. Throughout the evening\, signature moments such as the iconic Napkin Wave and the sparkling sendoff create an atmosphere of celebration that has helped make the event a global phenomenon. \nParticipants are asked to follow several long-standing traditions\, including wearing an all-white ensemble and bringing white tables\, chairs\, linens\, dinnerware\, and décor. Guests may either pack their own gourmet picnic or reserve catered meals and rental equipment through the event’s online store. In keeping with its French heritage\, wine and Champagne are served\, while guests are also welcome to bring non-alcoholic beverages. The event also maintains a strong commitment to sustainability by asking every attendee to leave the venue exactly as they found it. \nDîner en Blanc Birmingham is hosted by Jasmine Allen\, who returns alongside Lynnette Favors to welcome guests for another year of elegance and celebration. Allen describes this year’s experience as “elegance in motion—timeless\, luminous\, and unapologetically French\,” capturing the spirit of the 2026 theme and the atmosphere guests can expect. \nOriginally launched in Paris\, Dîner en Blanc has grown into an international cultural phenomenon spanning more than 120 cities across 40 countries\, bringing communities together through fashion\, food\, entertainment\, and unforgettable shared experiences. \nGuests interested in attending are encouraged to join the Birmingham Fan List to receive updates and notification when Phase 3 registration becomes available.
