It’s awards season and one of our favorite times here at XOJohn.com as we love giving you insider access to all the star watching and best brands on the scene.

Kicking off the start to Oscars weekend on February 24-25, 2017, we had the opportunity go inside GBK’s Pre-Oscar Luxury Lounge held at a private residence in Beverly Hills. As the doors opened, flanked by GBK’s signature logo made out of roses, we serendipitously ascended the stairs the same time as the incredibly talented Randy Jackson. While inside, the lounge was set up outside the front area and a side lawn of the private residence, making the entire experience very exclusive, yet still laid back with the sounds of The Rich Group, pumping out the proper grooves to complement the ambiance and atmosphere.

We had the opportunity to check out the exclusive GBK Pre-Grammy Awards Luxury Lounge on Saturday, February 11, 2017 at The Auto Gallery’s McLaren Beverly Hills held the weekend of the Grammy Awards. We loved the feel of the lounge being hosted this year in The Auto Gallery (which houses McLaren and Maserati and its family of dealerships throughout LA), which provided a much-needed respite for the long days and nights of Grammy parties and afterparties. The extensive showroom provided the lounge’s attendees even more of an exclusive feel, ensconced by Maseratis and Porsches on the floor and with space that made everything feel super relaxed, yet upscale.
