Scoring an invite to the event is no small feat — but those who are at home need not fear: The red carpet can be live-streamed from anywhere.

Here’s what you need to know:
When and Where
Held on the first Monday each May, the Met Gala falls on May 6 this year. Red carpet coverage begins at 7 p.m. ET, with all the action going down at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
How to Watch
Action inside the Met Gala isn’t broadcast — but those hoping to watch on TV can tune into E! at 5 p.m. ET for the pre-show and red carpet. Giuliana Rancic, Brad Goreski, Zanna Roberts Rassi and Elaine Welteroth will be stationed at 30 Rockefeller Plaza discussing the night’s fashion. Vogue will be live-streaming the event on its Facebook page.
The Hosts
“Just Dance” singer Lady Gaga, ex-One Direction member Harry Styles, tennis star Serena Williams and Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele are co-hosting the gala. With Michele as a host, it stands to reason that many guests will be clad in Gucci for the night.
The Theme
The theme is Camp: Notes on Fashion. The title plays off a 1964 Susan Sondag essay called “Notes on Camp,” in which she wrote: “Indeed the essence of Camp is its love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration.”
