Nacho Figueras,
Delfina Blaquier and President of Veuve Clicquot U.S.,
Vanessa Kay. Beginning the festivities, Broadway star
Norm Lewis sang the National Anthem and

As Nacho was injured from a polo match two weeks prior, his son Hilario played on team Black Watch and defeated team Nespresso 8-6 in an exciting game. During half-time,
Matthew McConaughey and
Camila Alves McConaughey went out onto the field for the stomping of the divots, a classic polo tradition. Throughout the match, guests sipped Veuve Clicquot champagne, feasted on a polo-perfect lunch, and watched on the side lines as 7,000 New Yorkers took in the sweeping views of the city skyline and the Statue of Liberty.
