Stay in the ‘Up’ House, X-Men Mansion and More With Airbnb’s “Icons” Program
The company’s latest initiative for one-of-a-kind experiences.
Airbnb is known throughout the world for its user-listed portfolio of vacation rentals. But aside from the range of typical stays, the company has a history of special experiences that included stays at DJ Khaled’s infamous sneaker closet, Shrek’s Swamp, Barbie’s Malibu Dreamhouse, Ted Lasso’s favorite pub and more. Now the company is taking its experiences to the next level with the announcement of its Summer 2024 Icons Program.
With Icons, Airbnb is expanding its taste for unique experiences to the fields of film, music, sports, television and more. So whether it be a movie house or a special museum, no place or person is off limits. Although each is special in its own right, one of the standout experiences is staying in the Up house from the Disney/Pixar film, located in Abiquiu, New Mexico with more than 8,000 balloons.
“Icons take you inside worlds that only existed in your imagination—until now,” said Brian Chesky, Airbnb co-founder and CEO. “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 other standout experiences include a night at the Ferrari Museum, staying at the X-Men Mansion (boasting a 2-D design), joining Kevin Hart for a VIP evening at Coramino Live Lounge, staying in the famous clock room at Paris’ Musée d’Orsay, a special living room performance from Doja Cat, a stay at Prince’s Purple Rain house, an overnight gaming experience with Khaby Lame in Milan, go on tour with Feid for a week, a personally hosted stay at Janhvi Kapoor’s family home and a stay at headquarters from Inside Out 2 with Joy.
While all Icons experiences are priced under $100 USD per guest, most are free of charge. With 4,000 available tickets, interested parties can request to book through the Airbnb app with selected guests receiving a digital golden ticket.
