Fire Island Pines said goodbye to summer with a weekend packed full of music, poolside fun and plenty of celebrity cameos. Tristan Schukraft and Tryst Hospitality once again transformed Labor Day into a Pines tradition, delivering parties that kept the island buzzing until sunrise.
Sniffies Function Brings the Heat
The festivities kicked off Friday night at the Pavilion, where the Sniffies Function drew a wall-to-wall crowd. The dance floor pulsed into the early hours as partygoers celebrated the season’s last hurrah. Among those spotted letting loose were RuPaul’s Drag Race alum Kandy Muse and pop powerhouse Adam Lambert, blending seamlessly into a crowd ready for one final blowout.
Lina Bradford Returns for High Tea
Saturday afternoon belonged to Fire Island royalty. Lina Bradford, who hosted the very first High Tea in Pines history, returned to the Pavilion to close the season. Her set mixed nostalgic beats with new grooves, and fans showered her with love. Even Real Housewives of New York star Sonja Morgan made an appearance, keeping the momentum high as the drinks flowed and the dance floor stayed packed.
Poolside Partying with Sonja Morgan
The sun stayed out just long enough for the Tryst Pool Club Party to steal the spotlight later that day. Hosted by Morgan herself, the event featured games, performances and plenty of champagne-fueled antics. Drag favorite Pixie Aventura was crowned Queen of the Pool Club, while the Tryst Dancers worked the decks and the crowd. With towels tossed aside and beats blasting, it was a quintessential Pines afternoon.
Looking Ahead to Next Season
As the last drinks were poured and the music wound down, Schukraft teased that the summer of 2026 will raise the bar even higher. Fire Island Pines has long been a destination for unforgettable weekends, and with new projects already in the works, partygoers can expect next year’s send-off to be bigger than ever.
