Ever wondered what life is like as a Quintessentially member? Well, now you don’t have to – we’re giving you an exclusive look into our world. We make magic happen for our members, wherever they are and with whatever they need. Without us, they wouldn’t have tickets to sold-out concerts, front-row seats to fashion shows, and spots on invite-only guest lists.  

With 35+ offices worldwide, we make it our mission to ensure our members live a life without limits. Every day, we open the door to the world’s most exclusive events – and last month was no different. So, without further ado, here’s what our members got up to in April…

Spring members’ drinks

Photography is strictly forbidden inside this popular private members’ club in London, so we can’t show you any snaps from the event. We can, however, share the details. Our Quintessence and Elite members had a hoot when we hosted a complimentary evening of drinks and nibbles at Celeste in Notting Hill. 

The Olivier Awards 2026

Our members rely on us for access they can’t get anywhere else. Like when they brushed shoulders with stars like Cate Blanchett on the green carpet, before taking their seats in the VIP Second Tier box. From there, they had superb views of the ceremony and snacked on a Fortnum & Mason hamper.

Dinner at St. James’s Palace

As is standard for many of the events our members attend, the evening began with Champagne and canapés. Hosted by HRH Price Edward, they were then treated to a private concert from London Mozart Players, followed by a three-course dinner and a coffee with the Duke of Edinburgh himself. Jolly good, indeed.

Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival

Securing artist passes for both weekends of the festival? Never say never. We got our hands on some of the hardest tickets to get – meaning our members had backstage access as they danced day and night in the Californian desert, including entry to VIP afterparties.

Masters Tournament

As ever, the Masters took place at the azalea-filled Augusta National, one of the world’s most beautiful golf courses. And a little birdie told us that it’s one of the toughest sporting tournaments to get into – but we bagged grounds badges and access to Berckmans Place for our stateside members, who watched Rory McIlroy crowned champion. 

Artexpo New York

Picture this: complimentary collectors’ passes to America’s largest annual art fair. Well, our members don’t have to – that's exactly what they experienced at the four-day event at Pier 36. Alongside fellow art aficionados, they brushed up on works from over 400 emerging and established galleries.

The opening of Marcel

“I’ll have the côte de bœuf and Andy Warhol, please.” That’s the kind of order on the menu at Sotheby’s New York’s hottest restaurant, Marcel. Our members were among the first through the doors, dining beside a rotating display of works by leading artists, alongside French classics such as flower-crowned mille-feuille.
