Saturday Night Party

2025 SATURDAY NIGHT PARTY

The Cove – 6PM to 10 PM

The Saturday Night Party is a chance for attendees and exhibitors to mingle and celebrate a passion for scuba in a relaxed and fun setting. This year’s soiree is free to attend and just a quick walk from the exhibit hall. At the close of the show on Saturday, step outside the exhibit hall doors and go left, downstairs to the Seaside conference area. As you leave to go through the doors outside you will enter The Cove, an ocean-themed party area where we will be waiting to greet you with food trucks, cash bars, games, a raffle to raise money for a cause, live music from Woodie and the Longboards, and more. The Cove turns lovely with lighting as the sun goes down.

The highlight of the evening will be a presentation of the California Scuba Service Award to this year’s honoree, Ed Stetson.

And, of course, we’ll have awesome raffle prizes up for grabs (see the list below!).

We hope you’ll join us for an always-fun Saturday Night Party. We promise you a good time and the best company — fellow scuba lovers. We can’t wait to party with you!
