Celebrate the future of river swimming at the greatest pool party in NYC! Join Friends of + POOL for our annual Summer Pool Party fundraiser, an unforgettable evening of cocktails, music, skyline views, and a community committed to reconnecting New Yorkers with the water that surrounds us. As + POOL continues moving from vision to reality, your support helps power the next chapter!

We’re pulling out all the stops this year! Mr. Purple will come alive with DJ BOMBA ZEEN on the decks, Team New York Aquatics’ artistic swimmers making a splash in the pool, and we’re closing out the night with a rockstar performance from The Girl. 

Our Silent Auction is officially live too, and this year’s lineup has something for everyone. Score incredible seats to some of NYC’s biggest sporting events, plan your next getaway, recharge with one-of-a-kind wellness experiences, refresh your wardrobe, or get exclusive access to some of the exciting people and places shaping fashion, culture, and entertainment in New York and beyond.

In concert with New York Fashion Week, + POOL’s Summer Pool Party will present an intimate fashion experience with Hawaii-born, NYC-based designer Mikael Pono and his newest collection, Genesis. Click here for a sneak peak and learn more about the IRL experience.

Every ticket purchased directly supports + POOL’s mission and helps bring this once-in-a-generation civic project to life. Help expand free learn-to-swim and environmental education programs while preparing for public operations and the opening of New York City’s first water-filtering floating pool.
