"We are thrilled at the response to ticket sales for our event and can't wait to welcome community members as our annual benefit returns," Byrne Pozzi, Darien Foundation benefit chair and board member, said in a news release. "The purchase of a sponsorship provides VIP guests access to an exclusive space at the event."

Yacht Rock Returns! will feature a live performance by the high-energy, six-piece band "Three Sheets to the Wind," America's Number One Tribute to Yacht Rock.
