This Year's Grammy Swag Bag Is Worth More Than $20,000. Here's What's Inside
The 2018 Grammy Awards are shaping up to be a star-studded night packed with performances by legendary entertainers ranging from Kendrick Lamar to Kesha.
But winning speeches and iconic performances aside, another aspect of the awards show circuit that’s always in the spotlight? Gift bags.
Celebrity swag handed out at industry events has become a mainstay of Hollywood’s lavish celebrations, and everyone is always curious what’s inside. The 2018 Grammy Awards are no exception, with more than 40 exclusive and unique gifts inside worth more than $20,000.
This year’s freebies are more experience-oriented than in years past, and include everything from spa sessions to private custom-cocktail lessons, WiFi-powered pet feeders and private Teleprompter training sessions.
While we don't know the total value of this year's bag — there's so much swag it comes in a massive duffle bag — Money took a look at a handful of the highest-valued experiences and offerings from the 2018 bags, which were curated by Distinctive Assets and Gift Bags by Rachael.
