The brand has consistently pushed boundaries in lifestyle hospitality and culture with innovative programming, crafting experiences tailored for the next generation of luxury travelers.
“Music is at the heart of the W Hotels brand.

W PRESENTS goes beyond being a live music series—it’s a dynamic platform that celebrates the universal connectivity of music. Under the guidance of Global Music Director LP Giobbi, the program invites guests to explore new sounds and build connections within the intimate settings of W Hotels worldwide.
“W PRESENTS is a tribute to musical diversity, crafted to take our guests on authentic experiential journeys,” said LP Giobbi. “By blending local and international talent, we celebrate music’s universal language. Expanding the series is a natural progression, and we are proud to support artistry on a global scale.”
In partnership with FEMME HOUSE, LP Giobbi’s nonprofit organization that creates opportunities for women, gender-expansive, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ creatives in the music industry, W PRESENTS will also offer free in-person production and music engineering workshops in select markets. These workshops, focusing on beginner-level studio techniques, aim to nurture local talent. Furthermore, artists from the FEMME HOUSE community, such as Nadia Meliani, Adrienne, Modern Lover, and Cassie, will open W PRESENTS shows worldwide.
“FEMME HOUSE thrives at the intersection of community support, shared resources, and the opportunities that arise from this synergy,” said HERMIXALOT, Co-Founder and Executive Director of FEMME HOUSE. “We are grateful for partners like W Hotels who are committed to education, visual representation, and equity in music.”
