Oscars 2024: Preparations get underway as the red carpet is rolled out at LA’s Dolby Theatre while Hollywood’s finest prepare to descend on film’s biggest night
Preparations for the 2024 Academy Awards are in full swing and the iconic red carpet is already being rolled out ahead of Sunday’s glitzy ceremony.
The best of Hollywood will descend on LA’s Dolby Theater for the 96th edition of the annual ceremony, with films including Barbie, Oppenheimer and Killers Of The Flower Moon competing for Best Picture.
With hundreds of big names hitting the red carpet, bosses have made some big changes to procedures this year.
After this year’s ceremony was broadcast an hour earlier than usual, organizers are reportedly concerned that some big names could arrive late.
Bosses have reportedly changed the layout of the arrivals carpet, with two VIP lanes for the stars to filter down instead of one.
