Step back into the Roaring Twenties with Gatsby-esque glamour, prohibition-era revelry, and vintage indulgence as the Jazz Age Lawn Party makes its highly anticipated return to Governors Island. This spectacle promises a bacchanal of technicolor beauty and bliss, uniting costumed guests and world-class performers for an unforgettable weekend.

This beloved New York City tradition is a must-attend event, brought to global fame by the late legendary photographer Bill Cunningham of The New York Times. For 19 years, it has remained one of the city's most sought-after social events. Imagine intricate costumes, a sparkling social scene, and laidback lavishness exuding decadence at every turn. What are you waiting for?

Hosted by the famed Michael Arenella and His Dreamland Orchestra (of the pulsd-favorite NYE Celebration, too), swing and sway to the tunes of the finest 1920s sounds while you bask in the sunshine of this beautiful island. As the heat climbs, chill out via era-inspired cocktails & crisp rosé wine, shop at the Dreamland General Store for parasols, hand fans, and picnic essentials, take some dance lessons, snap vintage goodies, marvel at 1920s motorcars, and then some.

Performances, dance contests, croquet and the like will be on deck too. And when you need to fill up on fare, indulge in an array of nosh from the Gourmet Picnic Market featuring New York’s fanciest picnicking fare. Plus, gourmet food trucks will serve up sweet treats, ice cream, and old-timey snacks to keep the party vibes going.

Dressed in your snazziest seersucker suits or bewitching bejeweled frocks, you'll be transported to a paradise of playful sensations and nostalgia with a contemporary spin...
