Met Gala's co-chairs for 2026 revealed

The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute has announced the co-chairs for the 2026 Met Gala.

The fashion's biggest night will next see pop superstar Beyoncé, actor Nicole Kidman, and tennis legend Venus Williams join fashion mogul Anna Wintour to lead the annual star-studded Costume Institute Benefit.

Anthony Vaccarello and actress Zoë Kravitz will co-chair the gala’s host committee, which includes Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat, Gwendoline Christie, Misty Copeland, Sam Smith, Chloe Malle, LISA, Paloma Elsesser, Lauren Wasser, Teyana Taylor, Yseult, Elizabeth Debicki, Lena Dunham, Alex Consani, and artist Anna Weyant. 

Meanwhile, Lauren Sánchez Bezos and her husband, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, are sponsoring the gala.

The event has been set for Monday, May 4. 

The show explores the relationship between garments and the human body, pairing 200 museum pieces with 200 garments and accessories.

“For the Costume Institute’s inaugural exhibition in the Condé M. Nast Galleries, I wanted to focus on the centrality of the dressed body within the museum,” said curator Andrew Bolton. 

“Costume Art privileges materiality and the indivisible connection between our bodies and the clothes we wear.”

Proceeds go toward the Costume Institute’s exhibitions, acquisitions, operations, and publications.

Last year, Anna Wintour was joined by Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, and Pharrell Williams as Met Gala co-chairs while LeBron James served as honourary chair.
