Corporate events

A client dinner for twenty on a private motor yacht. A product launch for four hundred with staging, lighting and a skyline backdrop. A company celebration for a thousand aboard the largest event yacht in the harbor. Yacht Events has produced corporate events on the water since 2003, for organizations that need one accountable team from first call to last guest ashore.

What we handle

  • Vessel sourcing and charter coordination
  • Corporate dinner, reception and station menus
  • Stage, screens, sound and lighting
  • Branded décor and room transformation
  • Guest boarding, security and transportation

One team, every detail

Steven Tanzman and his staff come from catering and hotel sales, which is why they plan the way a client-side producer would: vessel selection against your guest count and budget, menus written for the occasion, audio-visual and lighting designed in-house, and boarding logistics timed to the minute. You deal with one point of contact throughout.

Vessels for every format

Seated dinners with a presentation stage, cocktail receptions across several decks, or an intimate executive outing on a private yacht. The catalog ranges from 12-guest private yachts to 210-foot event ships with multiple dance floors and bars, with departures from Manhattan, New Jersey and Connecticut.

Production built in

Yacht Events began as a lighting company on private yachts and Governors Island before growing into sound, video and larger-scale staging. Presentations, award moments, brand reveals and live entertainment are produced by the same team that runs the event.
