Rather than honouring people in a distinct “awards” section of the issue, the entire MOTY issue will become a celebration of the people who dominated culture and shaped the zeitgeist of 2022.  The GQ MOTY event will be refreshed and elevated to be even more glamorous, star-studded and exclusive. It will now take place in two-parts: an exclusive celebrity dinner, followed by a larger-scale party in an experiential space with 200 people in attendance.
