Vanity Fair’s Iconic Oscar Party Moves to LACMA for 2026 Under Anna Wintour’s Vision
The Vanity Fair Oscar party is changing location for its 2026 event. After years at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, the famous gathering will now take place at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). The move marks the start of a fresh partnership between the magazine and the museum.
The shift comes under the leadership of Anna Wintour, who recently took over as Vanity Fair’s global editorial director. Previously, she held the same role at Vogue, where she shaped high-profile events for decades. Her influence is already visible in this decision to relocate the party.
The 2026 Vanity Fair Oscar party will now be hosted at LACMA’s newest galleries. The move reflects a broader alliance between the publication and the museum, covering multiple cultural events. With Wintour at the helm, the party’s future direction appears set for a fresh chapter.
