The Club at Pier Sixty-Six Brings Private-Club Luxury to FLIBS
For five days each fall, Fort Lauderdale becomes the center of the yachting world as the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show brings thousands of boats, exhibitors and boating enthusiasts to the city. For members of The Club at Pier Sixty-Six, the 2026 show comes with an especially exclusive home base.
The invitation-only private social club, located within the reimagined 32-acre Pier Sixty-Six waterfront destination, is offering members a collection of VIP benefits during the 2026 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, running October 28 through November 1.

The arrangement puts members in the middle of one of the most significant areas of the show. Superyacht Village at Pier Sixty-Six South will showcase some of FLIBS 2026’s largest yachts, along with yacht builders, tenders, water toys and other high-end marine offerings. FLIBS spans six primary show locations and features more than 1,300 boats, making a convenient waterfront base particularly valuable.
A Private Club in the Heart of Fort Lauderdale
Designed by Jeffrey Beers International, The Club at Pier Sixty-Six is Fort Lauderdale’s first invitation-only private social club. The club is designed to bring together dining, wellness, leisure, marina access and a year-round calendar of member programming.
Members have access to spaces including the Orchid Room, an indoor-outdoor cocktail lounge and social gathering space, and the Garden Room, an intimate restaurant and private dining destination.
There’s also a dedicated Club Pool with cabanas, chaise lounges, bar service and poolside dining.
The club’s wellness offerings extend into the 13,000-square-foot Zenova Spa + Wellness, which features South Florida’s first snow room, an Aufguss-inspired social sauna, a vitality pool and treatment experiences. Members also have access to a private fitness center, movement studio and wellness programming.
For boaters, the benefits extend beyond the club itself. Members receive preferred marina benefits, including dockage privileges and charter opportunities, as well as access to dining and lounges throughout Pier Sixty-Six, including the iconic rotating Pier Top.
A dedicated club concierge and a calendar of curated experiences—from chef-led dinners and wine tastings to yacht cruises and members-only social events—round out the membership experience.

VIP Access During FLIBS 2026
During the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, Club members will receive two five-day Windward VIP passes, providing an elevated way to experience the show from October 28 through November 1.
The passes allow members to enter the show one hour before general admission through Superyacht Village. That’s a useful advantage for anyone hoping to explore the largest yachts and busiest show areas before the crowds arrive.
Members will also have access to the Windward VIP Lounge and Cabana Club, where premium open bars, gourmet food, music, luxury activations and private restrooms offer a place to step away from the pace of the show.

The club’s location adds another advantage: private tender service will connect Bahia Mar Yachting Center with Pier Sixty-Six, giving members another way to move between major areas of FLIBS by water. The show itself operates a network of shuttles, golf carts and water taxis connecting its various locations.
More Than Five Days at FLIBS
The Club at Pier Sixty-Six is designed to extend the yachting lifestyle beyond the annual boat show.
The property itself is deeply connected to Fort Lauderdale’s boating culture, located along the Intracoastal Waterway and home to a superyacht marina capable of accommodating yachts up to 400 feet.
In addition to marina privileges and access to Pier Sixty-Six’s dining and wellness offerings, members receive access to select Tavistock clubs and destinations worldwide.
And during FLIBS, that connection becomes particularly tangible. With Superyacht Village effectively at its doorstep and a slate of VIP privileges throughout the show, The Club at Pier Sixty-Six offers members a way to experience Fort Lauderdale’s biggest boating event with a little more privacy, convenience and polish.
