When the award for best picture is handed out at the Oscars 2026, the celebrations have just begun at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party 2026, where newly minted Academy Award winners mingle with power players from the worlds of music, fashion, politics, and more. For the very first time, the famed VF after-party moved to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where attendees could celebrate in a brand-new location.

Technically the merriment actually started hours earlier, with an intimate dinner and Oscar viewing party hosted by VF global editorial director Mark Guiducci. When the final course was served, the main event could commence: VF’s 31st annual Oscar Party, featuring A-list guests, In-N-Out burgers in abundance, and even a few little gold men perched throughout the space. Guests walked the red carpet, stopping for questions from livestream cohosts Brittany Broski, Quenlin Blackwell, and Jake Shane, then headed into Hollywood’s hottest room. Where else could you see Jacob Elordi giving a thumbs-up on the red carpet, Kris Jenner in vintage Valentino, and Julia Fox in another over-the-top VF Oscar Party outfit?

Ahead, your exclusive look inside this year’s glamorous festivities, featuring the 2026 awards season’s biggest stars.
