The 2010 Dallas Big Gold Statue Watching Party

Update: While we’re still recuperating from the killer time at the Lakewood Theater (and shaking our heads at how much Lone Star Beer our VIP section consumed), we’ve gotten photos back from the Red Carpet entry – check out Doc Strange’s gallery, and James Taylor’s gallery. One thing is certain: we’re definitely doing the Big Gold Statue Watching Party again next year, and we hope you’ll join us.

The 2010 Dallas Oscar Watching Party is brought to you by Lone Star Beer, the National Beer Of Texas; NeighborsGo, and the Dallas Observer.

Admission is free, with VIP tickets available for $10. VIP ticket holders will receive a badge & lanyard giving them access to the prime seats in the Theatre, one free drink ticket, and complimentary Lone Star Beer through the event. Advance sales of VIP tickets has concluded; there are a limited number of VIP tickets available at the door.

There’s a red carpet entry for all attendees – rain or shine – with photographers and a video crew stationed for “paparazzi” shots as you get to the party. It’s not a “black-tie affair,” but you certainly won’t feel out of place if you decide to suit up.

Doors at 5:30 pm, with Red Carpet coverage from the Kodak Theatre on the big screen. The Oscar broadcast begins at 7:00 pm.

Oscar ballots will be handed out to all attending, with prizes awarded for correct guesses on each category. There’s also a Grand Prize for the total number of correct guesses.

The Lakewood Theater, a restored 1938 Art Deco Movie Palace in East Dallas is home to a world of movies, concerts, plays, corporate and private special events, film and music festivals and premieres, community gatherings, and more.

Come find out who will take home the big awards, and perhaps take home some goodies of your own!
