Airbnb has just launched Icons, a groundbreaking category of experiences hosted by some of the world’s most iconic figures in music, film, art, sports, and more.
These immersive encounters let you step into realms previously confined to your imagination. From spending a night in the Ferrari Museum to joining Kevin Hart for an exclusive event, Icons promises to deliver unparalleled adventures.
Brian Chesky, Airbnb’s co-founder and CEO, stated, “Icons take you inside worlds that only existed in your imagination—until now. As life becomes increasingly digital, we’re focused on bringing more magic into the real world. With Icons, we’ve created the most extraordinary experiences on Earth.”
The initial lineup includes 11 incredible experiences:
- Drift off in the Up house
- Spend the night in the Ferrari Museum
- Step into X-Men ’97
- Go VIP with Kevin Hart
- Wake up in the Musée d’Orsay
- Join a living room session with Doja Cat
- Stay in Prince’s Purple Rain house
- Game with Khaby Lame
- Go on tour with Feid
- Live like Bollywood star Janhvi Kapoor
- Make core memories with Inside Out 2
These experiences are priced affordably, with most under $100 USD per guest. A countdown feature on the homepage notifies users when new Icons are available for booking. Guests can request to book through the app, and a few participants receive a digital golden ticket.
Airbnb also has introduced new features to streamline group trip planning:
- Shared wishlists
- New Messages tab
- Trip invitations
The platform has also rolled out upgrades for hosts, including enhanced earnings dashboards and improved listing management tools.
Icons and group trip features are available now, with host upgrades accessible through Airbnb Early Access.
