Held on Monday, June 9, 2025, this 18th iteration of the glamorous soirée brought together a constellation of stars, filmmakers, and celebrated artists to honor the creative spirit that defines New York City and the cinematic world.
The Tribeca Artists Dinner, deeply rooted in the festival’s commitment to supporting artistic endeavors, serves as a glittering prelude to the award ceremonies. Each year, renowned contemporary artists contribute original artworks that are then gifted to the winning filmmakers, creating a tangible link between different creative disciplines.
This long-standing partnership with Chanel underscores the luxury house’s unwavering dedication to the arts, a tradition that goes back to Gabrielle Chanel’s own profound connections with the leading artists of her time.
