Introducing the Wildlife Soirée – an exclusive, high-energy networking event aboard the historic Modoc, where conservation meets celebration. Hosted by legendary eco-warrior Captain Pete Bethune, the Wildlife Soirée is a tribute to the fearless conservationists who put their lives on the line to defend the planet.

Captain Pete Bethune isn’t just another activist—he’s the bad boy of conservation. From breaking world records on biodiesel-powered boats to being jailed in Japan for disrupting illegal whaling, Bethune has spent decades taking on the world’s most dangerous environmental criminals. His work with Earthrace Conservation has led to the arrests of poachers, the shutdown of smuggling rings, and the exposure of high-risk ecological crimes—all while pushing boundaries and inspiring global action.

The Wildlife Soirée is more than an event—it’s a movement. This is where conservationists, changemakers, and industry leaders come together to celebrate victories, forge new partnerships, and ignite the next wave of environmental action. With an electrifying lineup of DJs, fire dancers, and mermaids, this one-of-a-kind gathering offers a rare chance to meet, award, and celebrate the real-life heroes of conservation in an intimate and dynamic setting.

The 2025 Wildlife Soirée takes place on the Nicoya Peninsula in Tambor, Costa Rica (April 5th) and the Osa peninsula in Puerto Jiménez (December 6th), uniting the boldest voices in conservation for two unforgettable nights in 2025.

We run a tight ship (capacity is limited) and so these are exclusive events of people gathering to contribute resources of their own capacity to celebrate activists. This is not your average gala - it's wildest night in conservation.

Will YOU stand with the ones who risk it all?
