2026 Randall’s Island Park Alliance Gala

Celebrate The Park At The Urban Farm!

Celebrate The Park At The Urban Farm!

At this year’s Gala, the Randall’s Island Park Alliance is proudly honoring two leaders whose contributions to athletic competition embody the spirit of excellence and access that the Alliance and the Gala celebrate.

As New York prepares to take center stage for the FIFA World Cup, we are excited to highlight the Alliance’s vital role in growing soccer at the grassroots level. Each year, more than one million players step onto our fields from across the City, from professional athletes to those kicking a ball for the very first time. The Gala is a moment to celebrate that broad community of athletics and to inspire future generations.

Set against the backdrop of our beautiful Urban Farm, the evening will unfold as a vibrant, roaming feast; complete with seasonal flare, craft cocktails, and live music from local performers. Guests will move through the space, enjoying an immersive and festive atmosphere.

Every Gala guest helps the Alliance underwrite programs that help expand access to completely free public events, which reach more than 20,000 New Yorkers each year, providing opportunities to learn, and connect, while also supporting environmental efforts to restore and protect urban habitats and preserve green spaces for future generations.

Celebrate with us and be part of a night that champions opportunity, community, and the enduring spirit of the beautiful game!
