Mark your calendars for Wednesday July 29, 2026! Special Olympics New York's 20th Summer Social is landing at Marquee New York, and this one's built to be epic. Step inside one of the city's most iconic hotspots for a night of free-flowing drinks, hot dogs, a stacked silent auction, live DJ sets, and a few surprises we're saving for the night itself. It all starts at 7:00pm and tickets are limited. Are you in?
Grab your $69 Ticket (a $104 value) for admission to the summer gala of the season, complete with a 3 Hour Premium Open Bar from 7:00pm until 10:00pm, featuring Tito’s Handmade Vodka, Captain Morgan Rum, Bulleit Bourbon, Casamigos Tequila, Tanqueray Gin, VooDoo Ranger and more, as well as Hot Dogs!
The party starts with endless tipples pouring premium sips, so come thirsty. Hungry too? Hot dogs from a signature NYC vendor are included with your ticket. And once the drinks are flowing and the beats are pumping courtesy of DJ OPNMND, keep an eye out for special appearances from Gold Medalist Special Olympics USA Games athletes, who'll remind everyone exactly why we're all here.
Ready to raise your paddle? This year's Silent Auction is stacked with prizes worth fighting for. Think sparkling jewelry from Kendra Scott, a day out at the Bronx Zoo, a private group workout at SLT, Regal movie tickets and merchandise, gift cards to some of NYC's hottest restaurants, self-care hauls from Sephora and Malin + Goetz, luxury linens from Brooklinen, and the grand prize, an Antigua vacation package complete with two round-trip flights. Bid big, because every dollar raised goes straight toward changing lives.
As Special Olympics NY celebrates 20 years of this signature summer event, 100% of ticket sales go directly toward supporting Special Olympics athletes across New York. So grab your friends, dress to impress, and get ready to dance, bid, and celebrate...
The 20th Annual Special Olympics New York Summer Social is almost here, and this year, the guest list is smaller than ever. For two decades, this milestone celebration has brought New York together for one incredible night in support of Special Olympics New York, an organization delivering free, year-round sports training and competition to children and adults with intellectual disabilities across the state.
Their mission extends far beyond the field. We're talking integration and inclusion programs, family resources and support, and leadership pathways that empower athletes to thrive, all funded without ever charging the families who rely on them. With only a limited number of tickets released for this milestone anniversary, every seat in the room represents real impact, and 100% of proceeds go directly to the cause.
This exclusive evening unfolds at Marquee New York, courtesy of TAO Group Hospitality, the powerhouse behind some of the city's most coveted nightlife addresses. Marquee doesn't need an introduction. It's been the backdrop for New York's biggest nights for years, and securing it for a cause this meaningful makes tonight one of the season's rarest invitations.
Once you're through the door, the night moves fast and pours generously. A 3 hour premium open bar will feature Tito's Handmade Vodka, Captain Morgan Rum, Bulleit Bourbon, Casamigos Tequila, Tanqueray Gin, VooDoo Ranger, and more, paired with hot dogs from a signature NYC vendor, on the house with your ticket.
DJ OPNMND commands the room all night, and guests should keep watch for surprise appearances from Gold Medalist Special Olympics USA Games athletes. The silent auction alone is worth the ticket price: think Kendra Scott jewelry, Regal tickets and merchandise, gift cards to some of the city's best restaurants, indulgent picks from Sephora and Malin + Goetz, Brooklinen essentials, a private SLT group workout, a Bronx Zoo outing, and an Antigua getaway.
Tickets are moving quickly and won't be available at the door, so if you're in, now's the moment to claim your spot...
