The 2026 edition of the Academy Awards saw some of the industry’s biggest names gather to celebrate cinematic brilliance. Featuring historic wins, standout performances, and red carpet moments dominating headlines, the evening was truly a night to remember. While the focus remained on who all won the golden statuette, some of the nominees took home something equally extravagant: the annual “Everyone Wins” gift bag.
Curated by Los Angeles-based entertainment marketing company Distinctive Assets, the exclusive hamper, valued at $3,50,000 (over Rs 2.9 crore), is presented to select nominees across key acting and directing categories. This year’s Best Director nominees included Ryan Coogler, Chloe Zhao, Josh Safdie, and Paul Thomas Anderson. Whereas, the Best Actor category saw Timothee Chalamet, Michael B Jordan, Wagner Moura, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Ethan Hawke.
Inside, the bag offers access to curated mix of experiences including advanced skincare treatments, wellness programmes, private travel packages and bespoke lifestyle services. Here's a peek inside the Oscars’ gift bag.
Among the standout inclusions in the hamper is a 10-day wellness retreat at Santani Wellness Resort in Sri Lanka. Located on a hilltop in Kandy, within a reimagined tea estate, the property sits high in the island’s lush highlands, against the backdrop of the Knuckles mountain range. The retreat focusses on holistic healing whilst being rooted in Ayurveda. The programmes include yoga, therapeutic treatments, and carefully planned meals that prioritise balance and recovery post a demanding travel or work schedule.
The highest-value inclusion this year, CBespoke offers the nominees a $1,00,000 (approx Rs 83 lakh) turn-key home design package covering everything from concept to final furnishings.
The residence—located along the Pacific Ocean at about 1,200 feet above Playa Hermosa in Guanacaste—is valued at nearly $9 million (approx. Rs 75 crore). It comes fully serviced with a private chef, concierge, and chauffeur. Guests can enjoy uninterrupted views of volcanoes, mountains, and ocean horizons, with expansive terraces and infinity pools designed for secluded group getaways.
The customised facial rejuvenation package by New York-based Dr Konstantin Vasyukevich combines surgical and non-surgical treatments tailored to each recipient. Priced at $25,000 (approx. Rs 20 lakh), this product is one of the two medical aesthetic gifts in the bag this year. It is paired with a high-defination liposuction procedure by Dr Thomas Su of ArtLipo.
Known for its snow-laden forests and exceptionally clear skies, the Finnish Lapland is among the best places to witness the northern lights. For those who prefer enjoying the aurora from indoors, the glass-fronted villas are designed to provide uninterrupted views. The property also offers tailored wilderness experiences including husky sledding, snowmobile safaris, snowshoeing, and guided northern lights expeditions.
Nominees also received Glow Recipe’s K-beauty skincare set including Watermelon Glow PHA+BHA Pore Tight Toner and PDRN+ Repair + Soothe toner pads. The set is rooted in fruit-based actives and clinical formulations.
Nominees can redeem a stay at Can Nemo, a luxury villa with a Mediterranean setting. Overlooking Ibiza town, the hilltop villa accommodates up to 16 guests and is designed for large groups travelling together. The property features multiple terraces, a sweeping infinity pool, and breathtaking views of the coastline.
The hamper also includes vegan handbags by Gunas crafted from microfiber vegan leather. Founded by Sugandh Agrawal, the brand moves away from the use of cow, crocodile, and ostrich leather, and uses sustainable materials instead.
