It’s all about the grand entrance at the 2026 Met Gala, where celebrities arrive dressed in their most exquisite red carpet attire. And the first person to capture all that dazzling fashion? Our photographer Phil Oh, of course, who is stationed at the bottom of the stairs as the Sprinter vans drive by.
Once the arrivals commence at 4:30 p.m., there’s no predicting who Oh might catch sight of—whether it’s Maya Hawke waiting for her moment on the carpet or Jennie and Lorde making a swift exit hours later. We might even catch a glimpse of some of our favorite celebrity offspring, like North West, who assisted in dropping her mom off at the Met two years prior.
Keep scrolling for the top arrival moments at the 2026 Met Gala and make sure to revisit tomorrow morning for all the best departures.
