On The Scene

From fireside chats to winter fêtes, 3 was in attendance at the events that made an impact


Louis XIII Winter Terrace at The Hazelton Hotel

The Louis XIII Winter Terrace at Toronto’s Hazelton Hotel transformed the property’s outdoor space into an intimate and elegant winter destination for the holiday season. Blending elements of French heritage with North American elements, the seasonal pop-up featured a chef-curated tasting menu of oyster with caviar, steak tartare, and grapefruit semifreddo paired with the world’s most coveted cognac by Louis XIII—a blend of up to 1,200 individual eaux-de-vie aged between 40 and 100 years.


The Powder Room Opening

Powder Room opened in Yorkville as a new late-night destination from Liberty Entertainment Group, bringing a distinctly metropolitan energy to the neighbourhood. Think velvet seating, marble finishes, and fashion-driven details that make the perfect backdrop for your next night out. The upscale menu designed by executive chef Karina Gilverson featured freshly shucked oysters, bumps of caviar, and prime cuts of steak paired with innovative cocktails shaken up by World Class Global Bartender Jacob Martin.


Fireside Chat with Samantha Tan

We sat down with our Winter issue cover star and professional race car driver Samantha Tan for an intimate and exclusive fireside chat at 30 Hazelton Med Spa. Surrounded by special guests and VIPs, and moderated by mindset coach Hina Khan, Tan reflected on discipline, risk, and the precision required to compete at the highest level of GT racing—along with the pivotal moment when she decided to become a race car driver. Guests were treated to an experiential tea ceremony and gifts from Oribe, making it a glittering night to remember.


Empowered with Samantha Tan and BMW

In celebration of International Women’s Day, Samantha Tan and BMW hosted an exclusive group of ladies in Palm Springs, California for a day of performance, connection, and female excellence. The event began with sunrise Pilates before heading to the BMW Performance Center for an unforgettable driving experience—including hot laps with Samantha behind the wheel of the M4 GT4. By night, the group bonded over an elegant dinner at Tia Carmen in the Grand Hyatt Indian Wells Resort & Villas—making it a true celebration of women driving what’s next: in performance, purpose, and community.
