Although the academy discontinued having an official Oscar Gift Bag, Distinctive Assets, the LA-based entertainment marketing company credited with transforming celebrity gifting into a pop culture phenomenon, has provided one since 2002. Distinctive Assets’ founder Lash Fary has curated the swag bag to honor nominees in the Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress and Best Director categories.
Delivered to nominees in the week leading up to the show, the ‘Everyone Wins’ Nominee Gift Bags are not affiliated in any way with the OSCARS® or the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. From extravagant and eclectic gifts to over-the-top travel packages to Canada and Italy, each year Fary stated that he and his team are, “excited and proud to once again be creating what is known worldwide as the ultimate swag bag.”

While he hasn’t disclosed the exact price ticket for the swag bag, some in the past have been quoted in the hundreds of thousands, Fary adds that, “while our gifts may be famous for being fun, fabulous, useful and unique, they also serve a grander purpose. Most of the brands we include are from a diverse and inclusive array of small businesses who meaningfully benefit from the global exposure that being associated with Hollywood’s Biggest Night affords them. This is celebrity marketing with a mission.”
Hollywood’s biggest stars will walk the red carpet for the 95th Academy Awards on March 12, 2023, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles and Fary is excited to treat these nominees to a six-figure gift bag intended to pamper, delight, surprise and inspire, regardless of whether or not they take home that iconic gold statue.
Top acting and directing nominees including Austin Butler, Colin Farrell, Cate Blanchett, Ana de Armas, Michelle Williams, Michelle Yeoh, Judd Hirsch, Angela Bassett, Jamie Lee Curtis, Todd Field and Steven Spielberg will be in awe of this year’s bag, full details below.
