When is Met Gala 2025?

The Met Gala is held annually on the first Monday in May, which in 2025 falls on May 5. Celebrity arrivals are expected to begin around 6:00 p.m. EST. The attendance at the prestigious event is limited, with roughly 450 selected guests. The major fashion houses typically purchase tables and invite stars to represent them.

The main event, which features dinner, live performances, and the new exhibition inside the Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute, is private. However, the red carpet is extensively covered by the press, giving fans a glimpse of the designer looks. 

Viewers can watch the red carpet live through Vogue’s digital platforms, including YouTube. In the U.S., Peacock and E! Online will also stream the event, and many outlets will share live content on social platforms like Instagram and TikTok.

What is the Met Gala 2025 theme?

The theme for the 2025 Met Gala is Superfine: Tailoring Black Style. It draws inspiration from Monica L. Miller’s book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity. This year marks the first time in over 20 years that the event focuses solely on menswear. The dress code for the event is “Tailored for You,” a reference to the suits and styles showcased in the exhibition.

Moreover, Anna Wintour continues her role as the event’s main organizer and is joined this year by co-chairs Pharrell Williams, Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, A$AP Rocky, and LeBron James. Additionally, the 2025 host committee highlights prominent Black figures in arts and culture, including Simone Biles, Spike Lee, Ayo Edebiri, Doechii, Usher, Tyla, Janelle Monáe, André 3000, and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, as well as Jeremy O.
