Get ready for Brooklyn’s most magical gathering—the Prospect Park Soiree on Saturday, June 21, 2025!
What is Prospect Park Soiree?
Prospect Park Soiree is an outdoor dinner and dance party that takes place in Prospect Park on a Saturday evening in June. We provide the entertainment and breathtaking setting, while you gather with thousands of friends and neighbors to enjoy an evening under the stars in Prospect Park. Wear your most festive attire, prepare a delicious feast, bring your favorite bottle of wine, and dine and dance under the stars in one of Prospect Park’s most scenic locations. Show off your creativity with your attire and table décor, and raise your glass in a toast to Brooklyn's Backyard.
Soiree Tickets
The Prospect Park Alliance members-only presale begins Wednesday, March 19, at 9 am—become an Alliance member by Wednesday, March 12 at noon to access the presale. Tickets will go on sale to the public on Thursday, March 20, at 9 am at prospectpark.org/soiree. Individual tickets are $60 through March 31, and then increase to $65. A limited number of party packs of 10 tickets will be available that include two complimentary bottles of wine from our on-site wine partner City Winery.

What to Bring
Tables, chairs and entertainment are provided (tables are 8 feet long). Bring an elegant picnic dinner for you and your guests. Add beer or wine and you're on your way to a perfect night. Please bring a tablecloth, cups, plates, cutlery, serving dishes and table décor, as well as trash bags, to bag your trash at the end of the night. We recommend bringing reusable containers and tableware to minimize waste and keep the park clean. You can bring one bottle of wine or one six-pack of beer per person, but no hard alcohol. Bags will be inspected at the door.
