The 2026 McGaw YMCA Y140 Party, presented by Northwestern University, at the McGaw YMCA Sebring-Lewis Center.

The McGaw Y's Y140 Party, presented by Northwestern University, is a night of community, fun, and purpose. This 21+ fundraising event is the ultimate “night in the Town” experience, blending the sophistication and style of our Galas with the energy, nostalgia, and togetherness of the iconic Y Parties from years past. Enjoy music from across the decades, reconnect with familiar faces, and expect a packed dance floor, all while supporting an organization dedicated to creating brighter futures in Evanston.

Whether you’ve danced the night away at a Y Party, celebrated with us at a Gala, or are joining us for the first time, get ready to enjoy the best of both worlds. Experience the music, the connections, and the sense of community that made these nights a beloved tradition in Evanston.
