“The DPA pre–Golden Globes Luxe drive up” will offer 125 gift bags to nominees and first responders Los Angeles, February 22nd, 2021 — A veteran in the production of star-studded events, Nathalie Dubois, President and CEO of DPA, has proven herself to be exceptionally innovative and successful in the realm of celebrity gift suites. Originally from France, Nathalie Dubois attributes her success in part to her world travels and the exotic cultural influences of the products she picks for her unique gift suites. DPA run normally luxurious and spectacular gifting suites in LA, the weeks of various award shows, but also can be seen in the biggest film festivals such as Cannes, Venice or Toronto. DPA also opened its first Asian office in Tokyo, Japan in 2017, facilitating her work with the Asian market (and thinking right now of doing its first suite in Japan during the Olympic Games) The DPA gift suites have been pausing for a year now (the last one was in Paris for the César Awards in February 2021). The firm (owner of giftingsuite.com) used that lockdown time, to revamp its concept and created few new departments On February 25 and 26, 2021, at the Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel, DPA is back with a brand-new concept: “The DPA Pre Golden Globes Luxe drive up” will gift a huge gift bag to 115 nominees as well as ten Covid-19 first responders. Nathalie Dubois, CEO of DPA says: “Since the beginning of the pandemic, I wanted to give back to these first responders. So, we decided to incorporate some of them into our event. So, we asked one hospital to choose 10 people in their Covid department to thank them for their hard work.” And she continues on explaining this new concept: “The Drive-in idea came as a natural, as I wanted everybody to stay safe, but still to have fun the week of the Golden Globes. We will only be 8 on the premises, it is a huge space outside at the Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel, and each of my employees will wear masks and gloves, and social distance from each other. Celebrities will drive to the pick-up location and will get their bags” The DPA pre–Golden Globes Luxe drive up is already getting a huge success, DPA is sold out of gift bags, is expecting lots of A listers to show up and now is just putting names on a waiting list! Nathalie added “I am very proud of these gift bags, and of each of these companies. We have remarkable products and super innovative ones like the $149 Active+ Bluetooth mask from AirPop but also for selected guests a trip to Le Taha’a by Pearl Resorts in French Polynesia or Soori Bali Hotel in Bali. It should give all our nominees some good vibes and the hope of a return to normalcy soon”. The 34 Brands represented in the gift bags are :AirPop, Autumn Brands, Active One Kids, New England Hemp Farm, Fine by AmyLea Murphy, Ten One Rum, Maine Island Soaps, Topochico, Maeva Wellness, SkirtMyPump, K9s Only, Tough As A Mother Tribe, Tahiti Tourisme, Carvery Kitchen, Asea ,Mantra Mask, Luxie Beauty, Buttery Popcorn, Candy Depot, Claymonics, Geek Eyewear, Fazup, Soori Bali, Luxe Hotels, Cool Ass Black Woman, Klipsta, Sipmask, Shh Skincare, Social Sparkling wine, My Bougie Bottle, Le Taha’a by Pearl Resorts, Connect with Keao, Truth in hand and Good Dee’s. “Physical in-person” gift suites will resume, if permitted, the week of the Oscars in Los Angeles April 22 and 23, 2021 and in France for the Cannes Film Festival in July 2021.
