About This Event

Welcome to one of the signature experiences of Black Yacht Weekend.

The R&B Cruise: Juneteenth All Black Party brings the energy of the weekend onto the water for a high-vibe, curated cruise experience celebrating music, culture, and community.

Set against the backdrop of the Chicago skyline, this is where attendees come together to experience the sound of R&B in its purest form from throwbacks to today’s hits all while celebrating Juneteenth weekend.

The Experience

• Curated R&B soundtrack (90s, 2000s, and now)
• Live DJs + high-energy dance floor
• Scenic cruise on Lake Michigan
• Premium bar access onboard
• A crowd that actually came to show up

This is not a typical boat party — this is a Black Yacht Weekend experience.

Dress Code: All Black

This is a strict all-black affair.

We’re setting the tone:

• Clean, elevated, intentional looks
• Summer yacht fits (linen, mesh, monochrome)
• Stylish > trendy
