This year’s Art Basel Miami Beach was even bigger and better than ever before – all thanks to our US team. Here are some of the highlights:

🎨We hosted our members at the city’s newest private members’ club to celebrate Miami Art Week. Here, art specialist shared her expert insights into this year’s fair.

🎨Our members attended the fair’s VIP preview hours, browsing the show floor before it opened to the public, including private tours of the exhibitions.

Oh what a night...🎄

Quintessentially Foundation hosted its 13th annual The Fayre of St. James’s on 26th November – and it was the biggest and best Fayre yet.

500 guests gathered in the enclaves of St James’s Church for a magical evening of carols, festive readings, and performances from famous faces – some of whom we caught up with before and after the event.

All proceeds from the Fayre go towards Quintessentially Foundation’s flagship initiative, The Firefly Project, which supports young Londoners living in poverty. Find out more and donate at the link below.

There are few things more magical than spending Christmas in New York.
..Except being a Quintessentially member, of course. So, here’s what we’d organise for you if you were one of our members.

🕘Morning
First, we’d book you into one of the city’s best hotels, The St. Regis New York, with exclusive benefits such as a complimentary room upgrade on arrival and early check-in.

Then, we’d whisk you away to Bryant Park Winter Village – a winter wonderland-like open-air Christmas market. And after you’ve browsed the stalls, head to a private heated igloo for a hot chocolate.

🕝Afternoon
Next, make your way to The Modern where we’ve saved you and three guests a seat at the two-Michelin-starred restaurant’s chef’s table for a tasting menu prepared by Tom Allan.

Hunger satisfied (and minds suitably blown), either head over to Saks Fifth Avenue’s flagship store for a private shopping experience with one of its expert stylists or go to the Rockefeller Center for a VIP ice skating session.

🕗Evening
For dinner, we’ve secured a reservation at The Nines – a downtown supper club series seating just 44 guests every Monday, serving caviar, cocktails, and tuna tartare.

Then, head to Soho Grand and look out for the velvet curtain which leads to Club Room – a chic spot where you’ll dance the night away to jazz.

Every day is a perfect day as a Quintessentially member. Discover how our US team can help you live like a local the next time you’re in town by emailing us at [email protected].

We don't just get our members tickets to The Christmas Meeting at Cheltenham. We also help them to plan and buy their race-ready outfits.
