🇱🇧 WHO IS THE WLCU? 🇱🇧

For some of you, the World Lebanese Cultural Union (WLCU) may be a familiar name, but for others it may not. Let us fill you in on our collaborator for the night!

The WLCU Sydney is a UN chartered organisation whose purpose is to spread the love we all have for Lebanon to everyone else - Lebanese or not. They are a charity with chapters all across the world, from France to Canada, Mexico to Denmark, hosting amazing Lebanese-centric events that raise thousands of dollars in the process; all of which has gone to Lebanon in the form of food, medicine and supplies.

Our identities as YALA and the WLCU share an adoration for what it means to be Lebanese and/or hold a love for Lebanon, so be sure to check them out as we count down the days to our amazing SYDNEY HARBOUR CRUISE!

🛟 SWASHBUCKLING PATRONS, we present to you our vessel 🛳️ for the evening!

With our final wave of tickets releasing now, make sure you lock in your evening with us and over 150 other likeminded partygoers to ensure you don’t miss out!
