September brings a rhythm of spectacle and sophistication, where the world’s elite move seamlessly between Europe’s cultural capitals and America’s great sporting stages. This luxury calendar for September charts a journey from the canals of Venice and the glamour of fashion weeks to the roar of Monza and the serene waters of Sardinia. More than a list of events, it is a curated map of where luxury, society, and style converge.
Film and Arts Festivals
Frieze Sculpture
London, UK | 17 September – 2 November 2025
In Regent’s Park, monumental works rise against the backdrop of London’s autumn. Collectors enjoy private curator-led tours before retreating to The Langham, London, a historic grande dame at the top of Portland Place, or The Landmark London, with its striking winter garden atrium just steps from the park. Chauffeured cars ensure seamless movement, while evenings at private gallery dinners extend the art experience into the night.
Fashion Weeks
New York Women’s Fashion Week
New York City, USA | 11 – 16 September 2025
The skyline sets the stage for rooftop soirées, showroom exclusives, and front-row unveilings. Those in the know retreat afterwards to members-only clubs in SoHo or make a swift helicopter escape to the Hamptons for a weekend of coastal luxury.
London Fashion Week
London, UK | 18 – 22 September 2025
In London, heritage venues host cutting-edge design. Discreet chauffeured transfers carry guests between catwalks and townhouse receptions in Mayfair. Annabel’s and Chiltern Firehouse remain the gathering spots for fashion insiders, where late-night conversations often rival the day’s runway drama.
Milan Fashion Week
Milan, Italy | 23 – 29 September 2025
The city of style offers not only shows but exclusive atelier access for select clients. Days are spent in fittings along Via Montenapoleone, while evenings belong to Michelin-starred dining at Il Luogo di Aimo e Nadia. The Bulgari Hotel remains a sanctuary for the fashion crowd, where suites become extensions of the runway itself.
Paris Fashion Week (Spring–Summer 2026)
Paris, France | 29 September – 7 October 2025
The grand finale of September’s style season. Paris is awash with private dinners in hôtels particuliers, champagne receptions overlooking the Seine, and rooftop soirées with the Eiffel Tower as backdrop. Hôtel de Crillon and Le Meurice remain the heartbeat of the fashion set, offering an unmatched stage for couture at its most refined.
Automotive and Sailing Events
Italian Grand Prix
Monza, Italy | 5 – 7 September 2025
A temple of speed, Monza thrills with tifosi passion and the thunder of Formula 1 engines.

Afterwards, unwind at a private villa on Lake Como – an exquisite counterpoint to the weekend’s intensity.
Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup
Porto Cervo, Sardinia | 7 – 13 September 2025
The world’s sailing elite gather in the emerald waters of the Costa Smeralda. By day, yachts race in choreographed elegance; by night, champagne flows at the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda. Villas overlooking the coastline or a suite at Hotel Cala di Volpe provide the perfect base. Private heli-arrivals from Olbia make the journey as polished as the setting.
Cannes Yachting Festival
Cannes, France | 9 – 14 September 2025
La Croisette becomes a showcase for the latest yachts, each designed to tempt acquisition. Collectors and connoisseurs drift between private jewellery exhibitions and exclusive champagne receptions.

Monaco Yacht Show
Monaco | 24 – 27 September 2025
No event captures the essence of the superyacht world quite like Monaco. Port Hercule brims with unveilings and private tours by day, and by night, the harbour glows with soirées stretching across decks. The Hôtel de Paris, Club 39, and Cap Ferrat villas play host to the global elite, while helicopters sweep in guests directly from the Riviera coastline.
Polo and Golf
Ryder Cup
Bethpage Black Course, New York, USA | 26 – 28 September 2025
Golf’s greatest contest returns to the United States, where Europe defends its crown. VIP packages grant access to gourmet hospitality, exclusive vantage points, and encounters with golfing legends. Many choose to combine the event with a Manhattan stay, commuting by helicopter to Long Island before returning each evening for city nightlife and fine dining.
