The countdown to the 98th Academy Awards has begun!
The winners in all categories will be awarded with the coveted golden statuette on March 16 at The Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California.
And, a select 25 will get the coveted luxury gift bag worth thousands – $65+k to be exact.
The swag bag is traditionally packed with the ultimate in luxury goods and experiences, such as this year’s private luxury villa in Costa Rica, valued at $9M with a concierge, chef, and driver.

What’s in the 2026 Oscars gift bag?
The swag also includes a custom residential interior design package, cannabis products, a luxury arctic villa getaway with views of the Northern Lights and facial rejuvenation procedures from a leading plastic surgeon.
This year, there’s also one standout unexpected inclusion: recipients of the swag will also receive access to a fully customised prenuptial agreement through Trusted Prenup, founded by famous divorce attorney, James Sexton.
James J. Sexton is a New York-based divorce and family law attorney with over 20 years of experience. Known as a “top” or “celebrity” divorce lawyer, he focuses on high-stakes, contentious divorces and is a best-selling author of books on marriage and relationships, including How to Stay in Love and If You’re in My Office It’s Already Too Late.
Sexton also hosts the “Better Call Sexton” podcast.
The pre-nup has attracted a lot of attention for its inclusion this year. But let’s face it, is a pragmatic inclusion for the recipient – considering that since they’re now really at the top of their game, they’ll probably need one.

An Australian family lawyer weighs in on a pre-nup as a gift
Managing partner and leader of the family law team at Dowson Turco Lawyers, Stacey Dowson, told Mediaweek:
“This is definitely very American. I like to think that Australia’s culture is not as negative and brash as this is.
“Also, Australian lawyers are regulated by the Uniform Solicitors Conduct Rules and these rules prevent solicitors engaging in conduct which tends to be prejudicial to, or diminish the public confidence in, the administration of justice, or brings the profession into disrepute.
“I am not saying Mr Sexton is guilty of such a breach (he is not subject to our laws), but I am saying that Australian lawyers have a lot of obligations and those obligations extend to how we conduct ourselves in public; this usually results in a more considered approach.
“Having said all of that, a prenup is always a good idea!”
