Tampa Theatre is proud to announce the return of one of its most glamorous events, Hollywood Awards Night, presented by Amalie Oil Co. Tampa’s Majestic Movie Palace will be the hottest ticket in town on Sunday, March 12 as we celebrate Hollywood’s biggest night of the year with a Red Carpet Reception and big-screen watch party for the live telecast of the 95th annual Academy Awards®.
Now in its 24th year at Tampa Theatre, the Hollywood Awards Night Red Carpet Reception begins at 6:30pm on Franklin Street under the historic marquee. After a limo ride around the block, courtesy of long-time event sponsor Skyline Limousine, our superstar guests will walk the red carpet past adoring fans and paparazzi, rub shoulders with costumed characters representing Hollywood’s biggest bigwigs, and chat with “Roan Jivers” about who they’re wearing.
Inside, there will be games, prizes, free popcorn and soda, the OSCAR® Red Carpet Live pre-show on the big screen, and a cash bar. ABC’s live coverage of the Academy Awards begins at 8:00pm.
Hollywood Awards Night 2023 offers THREE levels of watch-party experience:
- SOLD OUT $150 VIP PARTY DECK TICKET: A custom stage extension built out over the seats turns Tampa Theatre’s historic auditorium into the most exclusive party deck east of the Hollywood hills!
