Condé Nast Traveller celebrated its annual Gold List with a glittering event hosted by Roger Lynch, Anna Wintour and Divia Thani

Condé Nast Traveller celebrated its 2025 Gold List in Dubai, with a glittering party against the Jumeirah Burj Al Arab, which marks its 25th anniversary, as well as being featured on the prestigious Gold List. The evening, which included a ‘Touch of Gold’ dress code, was hosted by Condé Nast’s CEO Roger Lynch, chief content officer and global editorial director of Vogue, Anna Wintour, and Condé Nast Traveller’s global editorial director Divia Thani. The list is created annually by Condé Nast Traveller and is a selection of hotels and cruises that its discerning editors across the world deem as their own personal favourites.

The event marked Wintour’s first visit to Dubai, a trip she described as a “revelation”. “I had known that this city was a great place to come for a lovely vacation in a fantastic hotel,” she said. “But I am not sure I expected what I found, which is a completely global city and a totally diverse one, too, as the best of cities in the world are.”
