My Yacht Club’s 3 Night Club Venue over Formula 1 Race Weekend

Thousands of Formula One fans descended on Austin November 15th through 17th to witness the U.S. Grand Prix. Unlike other sporting events in the city, F1™ brings with it fans from around the world, including many of the “rich and famous” who attend an array of glamorous parties.

My Yacht™ Group, the luxury international events producer, returned to the Ballet Austin complex over F1™ weekend to produce its exclusive “Monaco-style” nightlife experience, My Yacht Club, a three-night sophisticated party with drivers, celebrities, models and fans.

Notable attendees included American actors Matt LeBlanc (Friends, Episodes), Rick Yune (Olympus Has Fallen, The Fast and the Furious) and Nichole Galicia (Django Unchained); New Zealand actor Manu Bennett (Arrow, The Hobbit, Spartacus), John Paul DeJoria, co-founder of Paul Mitchell Systems and Patrón Spirits and Oscar-winning sound designer Per Hallberg (Braveheart, Gladiator, Bourne Identity). Sauber F1 driver Nico Hülenkenberg stayed through the night on Sunday evening and former World Middleweight Champion Jake LaMotta (“Raging Bull”) enjoyed the scene with his wife Saturday night.

My Yacht Club | The Ballet Austin Complex

My Yacht Club transformed the Ballet Austin complex in downtown Austin into a sophisticated nightclub featuring two custom rooms – the Patrón Grand Prix Lounge and the Monaco Dance Room, complete with a floating aerialist serving shots of Patron XO. The new Methusalem V16 Ultimate Table, was sold for $50,000 and featured two custom-made 24-karat gold leaf wrapped, hand-embossed six-liter bottles of Comte de Mazeray champagne. Only 20 bottles were produced; one has been signed by all attending celebrities and given to Ballet Austin for a future fundraising auction.

It’s estimated that more than 1,400 guests attended My Yacht Club over the course of the weekend. Other notable attendees included Miss Texas and Miss Oklahoma USA and Circuit of the Americas Executive Vice President, Bruce Knox.

“We were thrilled with the buzz around town and amazing turnout,” said Nicholas Frankl, My Yacht Group CEO. “My Yacht Club once again enthralled F1 fans and party goers from around the world. It was great to have friends such as Matt LeBlanc and Rick Yune return, along with an array of new guests who had the time of their lives.”

My Yacht returns to Sea Level December 1-5, 2013 with My Yacht Miami at Art Basel.

With a tent stake planted firmly in the underbelly of Austin's entertainment life.

Austin Yacht Club: Sailing on Lake Travis Since 1952

Written by Cathy Hale | June 11, 2015

If the words “yacht club” conjure up images of Thurston Howell III from Gilligan’s Island in a yachting cap and ascot, well, you’re not alone.

Yachting very well may be misconstrued as a stuffy pastime, but not at Austin Yacht Club . This laid-back Lake Travis gem has been serving up serious sailing since 1952.

Austin Yacht Club is just a few miles off of RR 620 and Hudson Bend Road. If you follow the bright green scenery past Infamous Brewing Company and the neighborhoods of Travis Landing and Lakeland Hills, you’ll discover AYC on your right at the end of Beacon Road sitting on 30 acres with wet and dry slip storage.

Obviously, the Austin Yacht Club is buzzing right now thanks to the return of Lake Travis, but the AYC, an accredited American Sailing Association (ASA) School, is actually a hub for sailing and racing all year long.

In April, AYC Commodore Barry Bowden commended AYC for hosting the J22 Circuit Regatta in March and the Easter Laser Regatta over Easter weekend, which were the first races they’d been able to host since the drought.

Prior to the daily storms, the weather was actually great for local AYC sailors who took advantage of the wind and cool temperatures. In fact, during the Spring Series, they saw some of the fastest sailboat rides ever thanks to sailing skills and extra gusts from Mother Nature.

The Austin Yacht Club is gearing up for a bunch of races this summer including the Independence Cup Regatta (and party) on July 4.  And don’t forget, the AYC is not just fun for adults, they offer amazing Sailing Camps for kiddos all summer.

PBJ Summer Sailing Series (4-10) This AYC sailing camp is designed for first-time sailors and serves as an intro to the sport. The goal of this program is to get young children comfortable on the water and spark an interest in boating and sailing.

The AYC’s US Sailing certified instructors make sure everything is simple, fun and safe. They focus on teaching the basics with games and hands-on learning activities.

Junior Sailing Camp (8-16) Junior Sailing Camps are offered every week through the final week of July 20-24. During each week of camp junior sailors learn and practice fundamental skills on the Optimist fleet including four brand new ones.

AYC is dedicated to providing a fun and safe environment for young sailors. In addition to hands-on instruction, camps offer classroom discussion, land activities, water drills and special activities like racing, destination sailing and wind surfing.

Learn to Sail AYC invites everyone, members and non-members, to learn how to sail at various workshops during the year, as well as private lessons.

In the spring, AYC held a weekly clinic for beginning sailors to teach them sailing terminology and concept — you don’t want your boom to swing violently during an accidental jibe — as well as on-the-water practice. They will be hosting a similar workshop in the fall, so keep an eye on their website for more details.

In addition to multiple access points and beautiful views of Lake Travis, this private club has all of the amenities you need to stay comfy when you’re not yachting like a 2-level clubhouse with a bar and roomy patio, a swimming pool, a playscape, cabins, outdoor event areas and more.

With the brilliant blue water lapping at the shore, if you’ve ever thought about sailing … this seems like a perfect time to give it a try.

• News  /  News  /  My Yacht ® Club Returns To Austin’s F1™ Weekend With Glamorous Halloween And Models’ Parties Benefiting Ballet Austin

Winner of Halloween Costume Contest Will Receive 24-Karat Gold Leaf-Wrapped Bottle of Champagne Worth $20,000

(AUSTIN, TEXAS – September 29, 2014)   My Yacht ™ Group , an international global luxury events producer, returns to Ballet Austin for the third time to host its two-night Monaco-style nightclub, My Yacht Club (MYC) , during the 2014 Formula 1 United States Grand Prix ™ weekend. Known for its luxury hospitality events on world-class yachts in locations such as Monaco, Cannes, Miami, Monterey and London, MYC brings its entertainment flair to Austin by transforming the main studio of Ballet Austin into a dazzling international style club on Friday and Saturday, October 31 and November 1. This year, Ballet Austin will receive benefits in support of its Night of Community Program , which works with more than 100 regional nonprofit organizations to distribute 10,000 free Ballet Austin tickets to individuals facing significant personal and financial challenges.

For two nights, Ballet Austin, located at 501 W. 3rd Street in downtown Austin, becomes the city’s ultimate off-track evening destination, featuring reserved tables with bottle service, the Golden Girls, international DJ, Alex Karlsson, a glittering shot-pouring aerialist and more. On Halloween, the club will transform into an enchanted forest; guests are encouraged to compete in a costume contest in which the winner walks away with a limited edition, 24k gold leaf-wrapped Methusalem (6 liter) of champagne valued at $20,000. Saturday night, the club revs up the glam factor with the Models’ Party. MYC operates from 10pm until 4am.

Reserved tables are available at five price levels ranging from $5,450 for the V8 table to $75,000 for the most exclusive club experience, the Methusalem V16 Ultimate Table . This red carpet package includes four gold-wrapped commemorative Methusalems, 10 Golden Girls, dedicated waitresses, two security guards and up to 20 guests on a private stage overlooking the dance floor. There are also individual VIP tickets for $325. Ten-percent discount on all rates through October 1 st .

Last year’s notable attendees included actors Matt LeBlanc (Friends, Episodes); Rick Yune (Olympus Has Fallen, The Fast and the Furious); and Nichole Galicia (Django Unchained); New Zealand actor Manu Bennett (Arrow, The Hobbit, Spartacus); Sauber F1 driver Nico Hülkenberg; John Paul DeJoria, co-founder of Paul Mitchell Systems and Patrón Spirits; Oscar-winning sound designer Per Hallberg (Braveheart, Gladiator, Bourne Identity); and boxing legend Jake LaMotta.

“We’re thrilled to have My Yacht Club return to Ballet Austin as part of the annual Formula 1 United States Grand Prix celebration,” Ballet Austin Executive Director Cookie Ruiz said. “Nicholas Frankl and his team are experts at creating world-class experiences for guests, in keeping with the luxurious spectacle that is Grand Prix weekend in Austin. As the returning hosts for this premium party, we are pleased to once again showcase our wonderful downtown facility to hundreds of race fans and visitors. We genuinely appreciate My Yacht Club’s continued support of Ballet Austin and our important community programming.”

My Yacht Group CEO and three-time Olympian Nicholas Frankl has been involved with the F1 industry for more than 20 years.
