Bands in the Sand is the party of the year, and you won’t want to miss it! Each summer 1,600 guests gather on the beach, dance the night away to live music, and raise a drink to a saved Bay.

Attendees have reason to celebrate knowing their attendance and support directly fuels our mission to save the Bay. In 2024 we raised over $500,000 with Bands in the Sand. We hope you will join us and make the 2025 Bands in the Sand the most fun and most impactful event yet!
