The chic VIP Cabanas have been a sellout each year. The cabanas have become an iconic feature of Brooke USA’s Sunset Polo & White Party, and include admission to the sunset polo match, as well as the paella buffet dinner. VIP Cabanas offer contemporary beauty, comfort and privacy alongside the swimming pool or polo field, with prime location selection on a first-come, first-serve basis. Cabanas seat eight guests and include bottle service and upgraded hors-d’oeuvres.
Purchase tickets, cabanas, and tables here.
For those attendees who want to be part of the party with an elevated experience, VIP Tables of eight or individual tickets are available for the inaugural Touch of Orange Dinner, located on the VIP Veranda adjacent to The Stables restaurant. The veranda offers a sprawling view of the polo field, as well as the White Party, with exclusive access to the event and its own private silent auction. Tickets include an open bar, fine dining with gourmet action stations, top-notch entertainment, unique engagement opportunities and a menu designed by a celebrity chef. With the table choices inside the Stables Restaurant or on the veranda, the Touch of Orange Dinner is the premier dining option. A Bundled VIP Experience is available, with the opportunity for both a cabana and table at the event, combining the best of both worlds.
With over 1,000 people in attendance each year, Brooke USA’s Sunset Polo & White Party events have raised a cumulative $1.2 million to benefit Brooke USA, directly improving the welfare of working horses, donkeys and mules and the people they serve.
Some of the returning sponsors include team sponsor Provident Jewelry, who will defend their 2018 winning title and AmFund, the luxury travel auction sponsor, hosting auction trips of a lifetime with the promise to travel for a good cause. The trips are good for three years and have no blackout dates, making them a fan favorite and the bidding war intense. Schumacher Volvo of the Palm Beaches joins to sponsor Brooke USA’s Sunset Polo & White Party in 2019. South Florida PBS and Equestrian Living magazine will support the event as media partners.
