Los Angeles, CA (The Hollywood Times) 2/26/25 – Following the 31st Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards® on February 23, PEOPLE and Audi hosted an exclusive post-awards gala at the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall in Los Angeles. The event brought together some of the evening’s top winners and notable performers for a night dedicated to celebrating talent and supporting the SAG-AFTRA Foundation.

The guest list included a mix of Hollywood’s brightest stars, such as Adam Brody & Leighton Meester, Jodie Foster, Joey King, Taylor Zakhar Perez, Jackie Tohn, Adrien Brody, Edward Norton, Quinta Brunson, Jeremy Allen White, Pamela Anderson, and Keri Russell. Several award winners, including Timothée Chalamet, Molly Shannon, Demi Moore, and Kieran Culkin, stopped by the SAG Awards Engraving Station, presented by City National Bank, for a personal touch on their newly earned statuettes. Cast members from hit series and films like Bridgerton, Anora, Shōgun, Baby Reindeer, Abbott Elementary, and Conclave, which took home the award for Best Cast in a Motion Picture, were also spotted at the event.

For the 15th consecutive year, event designer Tony Schubert of Event Eleven transformed the Shrine’s stage into a luxurious setting, blending modern elegance with rich, earthy tones. The venue featured dark wood columns, cascading rust-colored drapery, and off-white furnishings accented with teal and blue ottomans, creating a refined yet inviting atmosphere.

Entertainment for the evening was provided by internationally renowned DJ Michelle Pesce, while acclaimed chef David Chang, founder of Momofuku, curated a standout menu. Guests enjoyed delicacies like his signature fried chicken and bing bread with ricotta and Chili Crunch, paired with selections from Cooper’s Hawk Winery, Santa Monica Brew Works beer, and Purely Sedona Water.

Signature cocktails flowed throughout the night, featuring Redbreast 12-Year-Old Irish Whiskey in an Old Fashioned, Codigo 1530 Reposado and Silver Tequila Margaritas, and Absolut Cosmo Martinis. Spirits from the Pernod Ricard USA portfolio, including Malfy Gin, MALIBU Original, Del Maguey Vida Mezcal, and Jefferson’s Bourbon, added to the upscale beverage offerings.

The PEOPLE & Audi Post-Gala once again provided an elegant and lively setting for Hollywood’s finest to toast their achievements while supporting the arts and the SAG-AFTRA Foundation’s vital initiatives.
