About this event

For over 10 years, the now legendary OptionOne DJs have been delighting crowds along the Thames with their exclusive annual boat party. Renowned for great music and a great atmosphere, we can’t wait to once again be back on the water in 2027.

We'll be bringing you our tried and trusted format to a new boat, the intimate Golden Star, installing a top quality sound system into a space for just 120 lucky people, and dedicating the time to our more than capable residents to keep the boat rocking with the usual mix of carefully curated electronic music.

Expect highly curated house, electronica, techno and all things between. With epic views of London from the Thames, through a warm summers evening, with a vibe that shifts from day to night, and that great party atmosphere we do so well, this is definitely not one to miss out on!

Note: Tickets tend to sell out in advance. Final timings and pier can be subject to change so keep eyes on the event page as we will update any details here.

Please read the following details for ticket holders carefully:

1. The boat (MV GOLDEN STAR) will board at 4.45pm and leave as soon as boarded at 5pm, so please get to TEMPLE PIER on Victoria Embankment at 4.30pm to make sure we get everyone on in good time. We cannot wait for you if you are late. There may be other boats boarding at the same time, so please check with staff or ticket checkers if needed.

2. This event is for those over 21 years of age, due to conditions imposed on us by the boat operator.

3. Please have your ticket and ID to allow us and security to check you onto the boat. If a friend bought them for you and you are not with them, please make sure you have their details in case we need to find your booking.

4. While on board, the captain, crew and security are in charge. Please do anything they ask of you. It will be for your safety and security, or that of others.

5. Whilst we want you to have the best time, anyone that is so under the influence they become a risk to their own safety or that of others will be dropped off at the nearest pier. This has happened previously and is no fun, so enjoy yourselves responsibly!

6. The boat will return to Temple Pier for 10.00pm where you will disembark.

7. Last of all, enjoy yourselves and the music!
