In time to commemorate the 70th birthday of the timeless musician Van Morrison, the luxury-travel outfitter Ker & Downey has orchestrated a trip to the singer’s birthplace of Belfast, Northern Ireland, where travelers will have the opportunity to attend an exclusive concert. Trips are scheduled for July 19 through 21 and August 23 through 25, with each trip offering a choice of two concert dates. For all shows, guests will be chauffeured to and from the Slieve Donard Resort and Spa where they will join 320…

The Wilson Audio Sabrina loudspeakers bear the signature styling and poise of their Provo, Utah, manufacturer, but in a compact size that is well suited for design- and space-conscious buyers. While the new speakers—priced at $15,900 per pair—may seem similar to the previous iterations of Wilson’s Watt/Puppy design, the company points out that, from a sonic perspective, they were inspired by the brand’s flagship Alexandria XLF loudspeakers and the years of research, materials development, and technological bre…

For its latest collection of high-end eyewear, the British brand Cutler and Gross found inspiration from an unlikely source: the circus. The muses for the London-based label—known for its bold, fashion-forward designs—were the traveling circus performers of the 1940s. The new Circus Collection (priced from $500 to $900) comprises a troupe of 12 men’s and women’s sunglasses and opticals in a variety of colors, from a gun-metal gray to a glittery ruby red. The Ringmaster, the collection’s principal men’s model, …

Amanresorts’ new 170-foot phinisi accesses the world’s best diving sites.

Why Go: When Amanresorts launched Amanikan in 2010, the expedition ship was a much more refined travel option for divers seeking access to two highly praised, remote areas of Indonesia. In May, the equally luxurious Amandira launched on the same routes but with five guest cabins instead of the two found aboard the Amanikan. The two-masted phinisis can be chartered separately or together, accommodating parties of up to 14. The 170-foot…

Expedition yachts are often clunky-looking boats, built for crossing oceans rather than marina-hopping around the Mediterranean. Many are loosely based on offshore trawler designs—think the TV show Deadliest Catch—with long-distance, seaworthy hulls and simple, Spartan interiors. Others may resemble traditional stacked wedding-cake superyachts, but with ice-class hulls, oversize fuel tanks, and voluminous freezers that enable them to venture farther and longer than most pleasure cruisers can. The Italian desig…

McLaren hopes to appeal to a broader market with its brand-new 540C coupe, calling it the company’s most attainable car yet. The second model in the McLaren Sport Series (following the McLaren 570S) has been engineered for both road and track driving. The lightweight carbon-fiber tub and chassis make the 540C almost 330 pounds lighter than its closest market competitor, and its additional aerodynamic styling helps it achieve a zero-to-60-mph time of 3.4 seconds. The 3.8-liter, twin-turbocharged V-8 engine gene…

The fourth annual British Polo Day Global Series celebrates the sport of kings with matches taking place across 10 countries. Founded by the entrepreneurs Edward Olver and Tom Hudson, the series kicked off in Abu Dhabi in March; it will soon travel to Los Angeles, Beijing, and Singapore, among other cities, before concluding in December in Jodhpur, India. For each match, the United Kingdom’s traveling team of polo players—many of whom have trained with world-renowned clubs, such as Eton College, Oxford, and Ca…

The venerable British luxury goods house Dunhill—best known for its tailored clothing and accessories—has created a new range of floral-printed swimwear just in time for summer. Currently available in stores, the shorts were designed by the company’s creative director, John Ray, who researched distinctly British flora for inspiration.

The five prints include vibrant blooms found on the British Isles, a seaweed print inspired by Victorian botanical drawings, and ferns and magnolias that grow in Ray’s own Lon…

Every year, one of the best places in Los Angeles (and perhaps on the whole West Coast) to celebrate Independence Day is at the Hollywood Bowl’s July 4 Fireworks Spectacular. This year’s headliner is the Motown icon Smokey Robinson who—along with his backup band for the show, the world-famous Los Angeles Philharmonic—promises an unforgettable musical experience. For its Fourth of July Fireworks package, the Four Seasons Los Angeles at Beverly Hills is offering a chauffeured ride to and from the show, and much …
