For example, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez were recently spotted in Mykonos, Greece, while Mark Zuckerberg and his yacht were seen in Mallorca, Spain.
However, they still have a number of events to attend in the coming months. Here's where the world's richest people will be heading this summer.
Billionaire Summer Camp: 15 - 18.7
For more than 40 years, media moguls and tech CEOs have descended on Sun Valley, Idaho, after the Fourth of July holiday at the Allen & Company Sun Valley Forum — also known as billionaire summer camp.
The event, hosted by investment bank Allen & Co, attracted some of the biggest - and richest - names in business for golf, guided hikes and even business deals.
Warren Buffett, chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, regularly attends billionaire summer camp.
AI and strikes by Hollywood actors and writers were topics at last year's meeting.
On this year's invite list, according to Variety : Shari Redstone, who will certainly be asked about the fate of Paramount; a number of tech executives like Apple's Tim Cook and Mark Zuckerberg, who will likely be on hand to discuss the latest in AI.
Olympics: 26.7 - 11.8
In theory, although the Olympics are an event for all spectators, billionaires cannot be absent.
First, one of the world's richest families, the Arnaults of LVMH, are major sponsors of the Games, and family members – including the world's third-richest man, Bernard – are likely to be prominent attendees. One of LVMH's Paris-based jewelers, Chaumet, is designing the medals; Moët & Chandon and Hennessy will attend various events, and Sephora will host activities along the Olympic torch route.
The Olympics are a favourite venue for sports-loving billionaires such as Bill Gates, seen here in 2008 in Beijing
Billionaires with no official connection to this year's Olympics will certainly be there, and in style.
Bill Gates and Rupert Murdoch have attended the event with their families at previous Olympics, and emerging billionaire Magic Johnson (basketball player) played for Team USA and carried the Olympic torch.
The Guardian reports that this year, the super-rich are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to see the most exciting events, meet the athletes and sit in the front row of the opening ceremony. Tickets to events such as the women’s gymnastics final cost $6,500.
Vistajet has seen a surge in private flights booked to Paris for this year's Olympics and luxury yacht broker Fraser has fielded a number of enquiries around the Games - including charters to watch the windsurfing competition live.
Burning Man: 25.8 - 2.9
The annual arts festival and "radical self-expression" in the Nevada desert has attracted technologists like Elon Musk and Google co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page since the 1990s - before they became billionaires.
Burning Man has a temporary airport reserved for billionaires who like to charter planes to the festival, built on the idea of "non-commercialization" and "leave no trace"
Mark Zuckerberg, Drew Houston, and Josh Kushner have all been spotted at the bash. Even billionaire hedge fund manager Ray Dalio attended the party in 2019.
Some of the rich - or the extremely famous, Paris Hilton - were also in attendance. They chartered private planes to land on Black Rock City's makeshift airstrip, stayed in "luxury tents" with air conditioning and private chefs...
US Open: 26.8 - 8.9
Tennis has long been a moneymaker and the US Open is proof.
The biggest names in finance, technology and entertainment — Bill Gates, Jamie Dimon, David Geffen, Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Ackman are regulars — flock to Arthur Ashe Stadium to watch the year's final Grand Slam tennis tournament.
Jamie Dimon is one of many Wall Street titans who regularly attend the US Open.
Many Wall Street firms have areas at the event for guests to drink and dine—and things could get even more lavish. The USTA is reportedly considering renovating the stadium, including “tunnel suites” off the main court, complete with top-of-the-line amenities. The New York Times reports that they could cost as much as $175,000 per person for the duration of the tournament.
Tickets to this year’s men’s final are selling for as much as $18,000 on the resale market, and sets can fetch six figures. Luxury sponsors from Rolex to Ralph Lauren are paying millions to attract attention.
Monaco Yacht Show: 25 - 28.9
For billionaires, summer ends and begins with yachting.
Monaco Yacht Show showcases some of the biggest and most expensive superyachts
In September, the wealthy or their representatives gather in Monte Carlo to view superyachts and plan their next vacation. These superyachts – some for sale, some for charter – average 50m in length and include features such as helipads, spas and wine cellars.
Last year's most expensive public listing was the Lady Lara, a 300-foot ship with two swimming pools and a cinema, priced at $245 million.
