The Sailors Ball is the main annual fundraiser for the New York Harbor Sailing Foundation.
This black tie gala celebrates the start of the new sailing season. It is always one of the best and most exciting black tie events of the year! This ball embodies the style, grace and beauty, as well as the romance, of sailing.
The first Sailors Ball was held in 1994. Since then, it has become a NY institution.
The Sailors Ball is usually held the final Friday or Saturday in April. The last Ball was held in April 2019 and has been paused since then because of COVID.
The relaunch of the Sailors Ball will take place in April 2023!
The NY Harbor Sailing Foundation is currently building the Benefit Committee to help make the Sailors Ball a success. If you would like to volunteer to serve on this committee, please send an email to office@myc.org.
