OSPREY, FL – August 28, 2025 – Time is running out to take advantage of early bird ticket pricing for Big Waters’ Party in Paradise.

On Saturday, November 8, Party in Paradise: Into the Night will transform Big Waters’ Bay Preserve headquarters in Osprey into a glowing nocturnal oasis. Attendees will enjoy an evening filled with culinary delights, signature cocktails, live entertainment, Midnight Bazaar Market, and dancing under the stars, all in celebration of the region’s natural beauty and the community that works to protect it.
Early bird tickets are nearly sold out. Following the August 31st deadline, prices will return to full admission. Now is the time to secure a seat for an inspiring evening that brings together art and nature.
