Oscars in Paradise 2024

It’s almost that time again! The night of nights, the show of shows, the film lover’s Super Bowl… and once again, we are celebrating them in style at the Paradise. Yes, the Barbenheimer Awards Academy Awards are just around the corner!

On the evening of March 10th, Paradise Theatre is going to be throwing our second annual greatest Oscar viewing party north of Los Angeles – and you are cordially invited to join us. Hosted by the CBC’s Peter Knegt (who also runs the fabulous Queer Cinema Club series at the Paradise), this Oscar party is going to have everything: drinks, food, incredible prizes, a best dressed contest, a good old fashioned Oscar prediction pool, and of course, a live screening of the awards themselves up on the big screen where they belong.

The Oscars start at 7 PM (which please note: is one hour earlier than usual!), but the doors to the Paradise will open at 5 PM. Come early and fill our your predictions ballot, enjoy a themed cocktail, watch the red carpet and show off your own look.

The best dressed contest will be judged at 6:15pm, and the category is: your fashion interpretation of the nominated films. So whether that’s serving us Barbie or Oppenheimer or Poor Things or Maestro or The Color Purple (though let’s avoid offensive cultural appropriation or The Zone of Interest in general, please!), take this as literally or non-literally as you’d like. Just have fun with it!
