How to watch the Met Gala 2023 red carpet in the UK

The Met Gala is one of the biggest events in the world, with fashion fans across the world wondering how they can watch the event.

The Gala itself is not broadcast, but the red carpet beforehand is where headlines are stolen when guests arrive in their elaborate outfits. Last year, it was Kim Kardashian that stole the show when she arrived on the red carpet in Marilyn Monroe's famous dress, and received heavy criticism afterwards when she was accused of damaging it.

Each year the event has a different theme, chosen by Vogue editor Anna Wintour, who also hosts the events, and this year guests will honour legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld. So, fashion fans can expect some show-stopping outfits to make an appearance.

How to watch the Met Gala 2023

The red carpet event will be livestreamed on Vogue's website, as well as on its Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram pages. The livestream will begin at 6pm EST, which will be 11pm here in the UK.

It's unclear how long the red carpet will last, but guests are allotted a timeslot to arrive at which should result in the red carpet lasting around two hours. However, in previous years guests have been known to arrive fashionably late, so UK fans could be up into the wee hours of the morning if they want to catch everyone's outfits live.

Met Gala 2023 guest list

The full guest list for the Gala has never been made public, so we don't know exactly who we can expect to see arriving. Some names have been confirmed, including Dua Lipa, Michaela Coel, Penelope Cruz and Roger Federer, who will all co-chair the event with Anna Wintour.

There was some speculation that last year's star Kim Kardashian might have been banned from this year's event after the controversy of her dress, but sources have insisted she has been invited this year, and will attend in another attention-grabbing outfit.
