This month, We’re Gonna Need A Bigger Float! Stay out of the water, skip the beach, and dance the night away with us in the West Village from July 19-27. Alison Schilling has prepared the ultimate Floating Dance Party for the very peak of your summer. Sarah Bertram, Jacky Gold, and Alison herself provide a soundtrack to put John Williams to shame. This month we’ll be led by Alison, except at 8:00pm on the 20th when Jacky takes the helm, and 8:00pm on the 27th, when it passes to Sarah.

Individual tickets go on sale this Friday at 5:00pm, but group orders start now! Reserve ten or more tickets to one event, and you’ll also get each ticket at the lowest possible price. To buy group tickets to an announced or future event, fill out our contact form or email us directly at float@whatthefloat.com.

Not sure what you’re getting yourself into? Let us explain a little.

Each night, you’ll be able to take advantage of Floatcheck, our mobile coat and bag check service throughout the night. Expect the event to last about three hours, with two intermissions at bars that would prefer you pay in cash, and an outdoor afterparty. Check-in only runs thirty minutes, so do not delay! If you are late you may be left behind and may not be able to catch up.

Dress to be true to you. Wear comfortable shoes in which you can dance and run and climb and jump on even and slippery terrain. Please bring as little as possible, as Floatcheck space is more limited this year. We'll equip you with glowing headsets, and lead you on the dance party adventure of a lifetime.

The fine print: The horrors persist, so all tickets are FULLY REFUNDABLE, no questions asked, with advance notice; if you are in any way concerned about your well-being, we would very much prefer you stayed home. Just let us know so we let someone else in; these events are small and they will sell out. This is an age 21+ only event.

Hot Float Summer - LA

Hot Float Summer - LA

Somehow we’re halfway through our season, so it's aboat time the tide floats us out to our annual beachy bash! Sunburns fade but the memories won't, so slam those laptops shut and sun-screen those calls. Even ice can't take the heat... It's only cute lifeguards on duty at Hot Float Summer.

Our resident Techie Elliott Enriquez makes his highly-anticipated Float Lead debut to celebrate Los Angeles in all her colorful, resilient, sun-soaked glory. And alongside some of our fave beach-side spots, Elliott is surfing us through never-before-Floated areas of iconic Santa Monica. So we know we say this a lot, but: c'mon, y'all. No one likes a shady beach. DON'T MISS THIS ONE.

It's a double debut with last summer's starlette Ammy Ontiveros making her maiden voyage to the DJ marquee! Then Float staple Molly Cohen boogies our beautiful bikini bodies back to shore with a mix exceeding even her standards.

To our new friends: What The Float is a roaming silent disco dance party. We facilitate safe spaces for our community members to celebrate themselves, explore their city, and above all: experience JOY. (Remember joy?!) All are welcome. Dance it alllll out, or just walk along and vibe: the night is yours! Have your own journey, or party with friends. Just don't miss it, because these are the nights to remember.

TO HAVE THE BEST NIGHT:

  • Arrive as early as 7:30 to meet the community and enjoy some bevvies. But the music begins and WE DEPART AT 8:30, so don't be late!

  • Bringing a friend? Thank you! If you're bringing someone to their very first Float, you each get 25% off the current ticket price. We hope you capitalize on this all year! All you need to do is input the discount code FIRST at checkout.

  • Please wear sensible shoes. Lewks appreciated, but not required! Wear whatever best enables your movement and makes you feel awesome!

Get Tickets!

(Not sure what you’re getting yourself into? That's understandable! You're so brave! It's beyond worth it; Let us explain.)

The fine print:

This is an age 21+ only event. All tickets are FULLY REFUNDABLE, no questions asked, with advance notice. COVID and various other horrors persist, and if you are in any way concerned about your health, we would very much prefer you stayed home! You DO NOT need to buy the event insurance, just let us know so we can let someone else in; these events are small and they will sell out!
