The end of awards season is almost here, and it’s time to go out with a big bang.
Oscars week always brings a packed schedule of events, and this year is no different. In the lead up to Hollywood’s biggest night on March 15, there’s plenty of events every day, from brunches and cocktail parties to parties and more awards (if you can believe that). And on Oscar Sunday, once the statues are finally handed out, there are plenty of options you can walk away with — with or without a win.
Mainstays like vanity fair, Elton John, MPTF, Chanel, Charles Finch, Giorgio Armani and Women in Film all make appearances again, as well as some new additions. Below is a summary of events so far, with upcoming updates.
