The 98th Academy Awards<\/a> are shaping up to be one of the most exciting shows yet, with the races for major categories like best actor and best picture still up in the air. (Need help with your predictions? We\u2019ve got you covered<\/a>.) But once the Oscars 2026<\/a> conclude and all the awards have been handed out, there\u2019s only one place you want to be: the Vanity Fair<\/em> Oscar Party 2026<\/a>. For the 32nd year, Vanity Fair<\/em> is hosting the post-ceremony shindig where Hollywood\u2019s brightest stars will converge to drink and dance into the wee hours of the morning. This year the party is moving to a brand-new location: the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA)<\/a>, bringing together two powerhouses in art, media, and entertainment.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t worry if you\u2019re not on the guest list. You can still get in on the action by watching the Vanity Fair<\/em> Oscar Party red-carpet livestream<\/a>, hosted by internet darlings<\/a> Quenlin Blackwell<\/a>, Jake Shane<\/a>, and Brittany Broski<\/a>. Wondering when to tune in? You can watch Vanity Fair<\/em>\u2019s red-carpet livestream on vanityfair.com<\/a> and youtube.com\/vanityfair<\/a> directly after the Academy Awards on Sunday, March 15 at 10:30 p.m. ET\/7:30 p.m. PT.<\/p>\n To prepare for the big night, check out Vanity Fair<\/em>\u2019s oral history of the Oscar party<\/a>, in which stars like Gwyneth Paltrow<\/a> and Lindsay Lohan<\/a> shared their favorite memories from Vanity Fair<\/em> Oscar parties of yore. \u201cI showed up wearing a long white Versace dress. I was so<\/em> nervous that it was going to get ruined,\u201d Lohan recalled. Luckily, she had a backup dress in her Birkin. \u201cI went into the bathroom to change. Stella McCartney was in the bathroom with a bunch of other actresses, wondering what I was doing. I was like, \u2018I\u2019m changing because I don\u2019t want to ruin this beautiful gown!<\/em>\u2019\u201d Paltrow recalled arriving to the Vanity Fair<\/em> Oscar Party with her very own Oscar after winning best actress for Shakespeare in Love<\/em> in 1999. \u201cWalking into the Oscar party with an Academy Award was a surreal and out-of-body experience,\u201d she said. \u201cI felt somewhere between floating and completely disassociated.\u201d<\/p>\n Be sure to stay up late with Vanity Fair<\/em> and keep the party going after the Oscars: You never know who might show up.<\/p>\n
