85th Academy Awards: Tickets & Online Booking
The Oscars race is going well and tighter. If you want to want the event Oscar 2013, first you have to struggle to buy a ticket because there are very less seats available. To buy a ticket and watch the event you can apply to be a seat-filler or register to buy seats on the red-carpet to watch the event at its best.
- How to apply to be a Seat-filler: Only 150 people are chosen to sit next to the very biggest celebrities in the first several rows. When the celebrity presenters and winners will be busy on the stage and behind the scenes then the cameras don’t show the seats empty.
To apply, visit the Academy Awards website months ahead of awards season at www.oscars.org. Qualification and selection is a lengthy and highly-competitive process requiring an applications, resume, cover letter and glamor-shot photo.
To increase your chance to be selected the guys should have a classic tuxedo, polished shoes and a suave haircut and the ladies make sure to do up your ‘do and have a few formal gowns and cocktail dresses to choose from.
- How to buy seats on the Red-Carpet: If you got failed in applying the seat-filler process too, there is one more option to book tickets. There are 700 Red Carpet bleacher seats are available on the 500 ft long walkway which leads you into the DolbyTM Theatre. As Seat-fillers wouldn’t be allowed to speak or even make eye-contact with celebrities, but red carpet bleacher fans can scream, flirt, photograph and beg for autographs all they want.
