Join us for our new SEASON OPENER SAILABRATION on WEDNESDAY MARCH 11th!

Join Community Sailing New Orleans as we kick off the spring sailing season with an unforgettable evening of sunset views, sailboat races, and a spectacular fireworks show over Lake Pontchartrain — generously sponsored by our friends at Gulf Coast Bank & Trust to commemorate the occasion.
Celebrate the start of Wednesday Night Racing from our waterfront home at the Alexander Community Sailing Center with sips, snacks, and balcony access overlooking the lake — the perfect vantage point to watch all the action!
We have TWO GREAT OPTIONS TO ENJOY THE EVENING:
🎟️ TICKET OPTIONS 🎟️
PARTY-ONLY TICKET – $45
Enjoy sips, light bites, and balcony access overlooking Lake Pontchartrain — the perfect spot to watch the boats, catch sunset, and experience an amazing fireworks show generously sponsored by Gulf Coast Bank & Trust.
Entry begins at 6:30 PM. Fireworks are scheduled for around 8:00 PM (sunset dependent), and the event concludes at 8:30 PM.
Perfect for guests who want to mingle, sip, and enjoy the show from shore.
SUNSET SAIL + PARTY TICKET – $65 (❗️SOLD OUT❗️)
Everything included with the Party-Only experience — plus an exclusive sunset sail for the best view on the lake.
Arrive early for 5:00 PM entry, then head out at 5:30 PM aboard our Colgate 26s for a 90-minute sail on Lake Pontchartrain. You’ll get front-row, on-the-water views of the race, then return to shore to join the party, refreshments, and fireworks celebration.
We hope you will join us for this special SAILabration! It’s one of our favorite nights of the year — and we’d love for you to be part of it!
