Where Music Meets the Harbour

Sydney’s Ultimate Floating Party

Step aboard the Yacht Social DJ Boat — the heartbeat of Sydney’s floating festival. Each weekend, hundreds of partygoers come together to dance, swim, and celebrate summer surrounded by yachts on the world’s most beautiful harbour. It’s a one-of-a-kind Sydney Harbour party that blends festival energy with luxury yacht vibes — the sun, the sound, and the skyline all in one unforgettable experience.

More Than Just a Boat Party — It’s a Summer Ritual

The Harbour Party Everyone Talks About

Born in 2015, Yacht Social created Sydney’s first floating festival — and the DJ Boat remains its legendary centrepiece. This is where good music, great people, and harbour views collide. From the moment the DJ drops the first track, you’ll know you’re part of something special — a community of summer lovers who live for the water, the vibe, and the freedom of the open harbour. Ask anyone who’s been — it’s the boat party Sydney can’t stop talking about.

From Boarding to the Final Beat

What to Expect on the Day

Your day starts at Rose Bay Wharf, where the Yacht Social crew will check you in and get you ready for a five-hour floating festival on Sydney Harbour. Once underway, we cruise out and raft up with a fleet of yachts to form the famous Yacht Social circle, with the DJ Boat setting the soundtrack for the day. Expect live DJ sets, swimming, social vibes, and unforgettable energy — all completely BYO, so you can bring your own drinks and make the experience your own. As the music winds down, we cruise back to Rose Bay together — still buzzing from Sydney’s most iconic boat party.
