Celebrities Set to Attend 2026 Met Gala, Arrive in Full Glamour
The 2026 Met Gala, scheduled for May 6 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, will celebrate the theme “Costume Art.” The event is organized as a star‑filled celebration of fashion, music, film, and sports, with a focus on artistic expression through apparel.
Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, and Venus Williams have confirmed attendance as co‑chairs of the event. This is Beyoncé’s first appearance since 2016, while Kidman and Williams previously appeared in 2025. Anna Wintour, now Condé Nast’s chief content officer, will also serve as a co‑chair.
Other confirmed guests include Anthony Vaccarello, Zoë Kravitz, and several high‑profile figures from entertainment and business, such as Jeff Bezos with Lauren Sánchez, Ariana Hofstedt, and Cara Delevingne. The host committee is chaired by the four co‑chairs and will oversee the event’s programming and guest experience.
The Met Gala will feature a dress code that encourages attendees to interpret “fashion as art,” with the expectation that guests will showcase innovative and culturally resonant designs. The event will proceed under the guidance of museum officials and the Metropolitan Museum’s event staff, with all safety protocols in place for the expected crowd.
