The Met Gala is a charity event that is considered a fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute. It has traditionally been timed to mark the opening of its annual fashion exhibition. Year after year, the event raises eight-figure sums. The Met Gala takes place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on the first Monday in May each year. Guests attending the Met Gala typically stay in hotels nearby, congregating at a few celebrity-favorite spots.
