Why guests remember charity events on the water
Fundraisers and charity galas raise more when the venue does part of the selling. A yacht is the answer for the major-donor evenings, sponsor cultivation dinners and annual galas where every additional ticket sold and every additional bid in the auction is real money toward the cause.
We host charity events from 80-guest donor cultivation dinners on Behike through to 240-guest annual galas on Xclusive 15 with auction stage, donor wall, MC and sponsor branding throughout. Plated dining, sommelier-led wine pairings and a live act on arrival set the tone for an evening of generous giving.
Many charity clients return year on year, we work in advance on guest list curation, donor sequencing, auction lot positioning and the run-of-show that maximises both atmosphere and raise on the night.
