Palm Beach’s iconic resort wear brand Lilly Pulitzer partners with ocean conservation hub Loggerhead Marinelife Center for annual Beach Bash Palm Beach

This December, more than 700 guests will descend on the luxurious Beach Club on Palm Beach for the highlight of the 2016 social season: Beach Bash Palm Beach, presented by Lilly Pulitzer, set for Dec. 29 from 8 p.m. to midnight.

For the first time, the always-dazzling Beach Bash will benefit Palm Beach’s ocean and sea turtle conservation hub Loggerhead Marinelife Center.

“The Beach Bash Committee is incredibly excited for this year’s event,” said Event Chair Nick Kassatly. “We are all thankful for the continued support of the Lilly Pulitzer organization and the Pulitzer family with Bobby Leidy serving as our honorary chairman. 2016 will bring some new twists to the event as we celebrate “Life Under Printed Palms” and highlight the amazing ocean and sea turtle conservation work being done by our beneficiary Loggerhead Marinelife Center.”

Decked in their brightest Lilly attire (dress is, after all, ‘Lilly at its Loudest’), guests will enjoy fabulous resort fashion, colorful cocktails, delectable bites and pulse-quickening entertainment while mixing with young philanthropic leaders from around the globe.

“Lilly Pulitzer is delighted to return as presenting sponsor of Beach Bash—this party is a true hometown celebration for the brand and we are excited to have Loggerhead Marinelife Center be the beneficiary,” said Janie Paradis, Lilly Pulitzer SVP of Marketing & Creative Communications. “We have enjoyed working with LMC through our Palm Beach Gardens retail store through the years and are excited to elevate this relationship with Beach Bash.”

“We are humbled to partner with Lilly Pulitzer for this amazing event,” said Jack Lighton, LMC President & CEO. “Lilly Pulitzer and sea turtles are an iconic Palm Beach pairing!”
