Everything You Need to Know About the Upcoming SI Swimsuit Launch

This annual celebration is one you won’t want to miss.

The 2022 covers are revealed. The galleries are live, and now it’s time to celebrate.

What Is Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Launch?

Every year, once the cover is—or in this year’s case, covers are— revealed and the new issue hits newsstands, SI Swimsuit throws a launch party to celebrate the hard work. Models from the issue, staff and partners gather for a grand affair. Launch week celebrations in the past have included panel talks from Tyra Banks, MJ Day and Kate Upton to performances from Bruno Mars, Megan Thee Stallion and Diplo.

Where is the 2022 SI Swimsuit Launch?

The 2022 SI Swimsuit launch is taking place in New York City and Hollywood, Fla. On May 19, there will be a private red carpet event at the brand-new Hard Rock Hotel New York, followed by a public celebration at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, Hollywood on May 20th to 22nd.
