Inside the $321,000 gift bag given at the Oscars to top actor nominees

The 2026 Academy Awards is officially on its way, and while all of the Oscar nominees are competing for gold, a lucky few of them can rest assured they'll at least walk away with something - namely, a luxurious gift bag worth $321,000.

Some of the stars up for Oscars this year include Best Actor and Actress nominees Leonardo DiCaprio, Timothée Chalamet, Emma Stone and Michael B. Jordan, who scored a surprise win at the Actor's Awards earlier this month.

But these particular nominees won't only have the chance to walk away with a shiny award. On their way out, each will be handed an 'Everyone Wins' gift bag filled with treats galore, from luxury beauty products to glamorous getaways, and even a voucher for a liposuction treatment.

The bags, which are not directly associated with the Oscars, are an annual luxury awarded to top acting and directing nominees by the marketing firm Distinctive Assets.

The annual party bags are renowned for containing some of the most luxurious trinkets, experiences, and vacations, with around 25 lucky receivers bagging one on their way out.

Last year's goodie bag contained $215,000 worth of treats, including $500 worth of skincare, a $25,000 Ancestry VIP Family History Experience, and a four-night stay in the Maldives worth a whopping $23,500. So, what's in store this year?
