The appearance was Cyrus' first performance since Lollapalooza 2021 in Chicago on July 29.

In line with the party’s Coney Island Mermaid Parade theme, Cyrus performed from a tent plastered with giant mermaids at Novogratz’s home in Amagansett, Long Island.

Page Six describes the event as resembling a carnival, noting the attendance of stilt-walkers, aerial acrobats, and Hot Dog Eating Contest champion, Joey Chestnut.

The party also hosted a silent disco where guests could hit the dancefloor wearing headphones playing their favorite tunes.

Novogratz, who has been described as “one of Wall Street’s hardest-charging party animals,” posted a picture to Instagram of himself donning a bandana, metallic blazer, no shirt, and painted-on abdominal musculature during the party alongside his son dressed as a sailor.
