Need somewhere to go to watch the 81st Academy Awards this Sunday night? You can go to one of the many viewing parties occurring throughout Washington D.C. The only official viewing party in DC is at the Hard Rock Café on 999 E Street. But to go this party you have to be willing to pay the price. General admission tickets are $85 each and VIP tickets are $180. Tickets can be purchased online.
If you want to save some money head down to the Arlington Cinema ‘N’ Drafthouse on 2903 Columbia Pike. DC Film Society will be hosting their 17th annual “And the Winner is…..” party. Local film critics Joe Barber and Bill Henry will be hosting the event. Doors open at 6:30 pm and tickets cost $20.
To have a weekend full of the Oscars then go to The Center for the National Archives Experience will be screening nominees from four categories: Documentary Feature, Documentary Short Subject, Live Action Short Film, and Animated Short Film. The screenings started this past Wednesday, but will continue through Sunday. The screenings are taking place at the William G. McGowan Theater. The tickets are free and tickets are first come first serve. Be sure to show up 60 minutes prior to start time.
If none of these ideas suite you then just throw your own Oscars Viewing Party!
