Published by The League

The League launched its 2026 Hamptons summer programming with a curated weekend in Montauk, bringing together invited members and creators for VIP experiences at Surf Lodge and Montauk Yacht Club—including a HIIT Pilates class with Madison Appel and Lululemon, a “Singles for Doubles” tennis clinic, and a Wimbledon Finals watch party. It’s the first of three Hamptons weekends this summer, with more to come in the following weeks and again at the end of August.

What Happened This Weekend

The League kicked off its Hamptons summer programming with an intimate, curated escape to Montauk designed to bring ambitious singles together beyond the app. Ten members and creators joined for a weekend built around premium hospitality, wellness, and real-world connection: VIP tables and dinners at Surf Lodge, and activity-driven programming at Montauk Yacht Club.

The weekend blended high-energy social moments with intentional opportunities to connect. Friday and Saturday nights, the group came together at Surf Lodge, with Brunello performing Friday and Lil Yachty and DJ Cassian taking over Saturday. Mornings shifted the pace toward wellness and community.

The Weekend, Day by Day

Friday set the tone with a night at Surf Lodge, live music from Brunello, and the first round of introductions among the group.

Saturday opened with a HIIT Pilates class overlooking the water, led by Madison Appel in partnership with lululemon, followed by breakfast. That evening, the energy shifted back to Surf Lodge for a set from Lil Yachty and DJ Cassian.

Sunday brought the group to Montauk Yacht Club for “Doubles for Singles,” a tennis clinic with Madison Appel, followed by lunch and a Wimbledon Finals watch party. Another 30 singles turned out for the day’s programming.

Why The League Hosts Events Like This

The League’s approach to modern dating has always centered on intentionality over volume—fewer, better introductions instead of endless swiping. IRL events extend that same philosophy off the app. Shared movement, shared meals, and shared moments create a lower-pressure way for singles to meet, one where chemistry has room to show up naturally instead of being manufactured over a screen.

By creating shared experiences rooted in movement, conversation, and fun, the weekend fostered meaningful connections not only among invited members but across a broader community of singles throughout the weekend.

What’s Next

This was the first of three Hamptons weekends The League is hosting this summer. The community will reconvene in Montauk again in a few weeks, with a final weekend planned for the end of August.
