How our celebrity events work
Our very popular series of celebrity events often includes a table in
our lobby where you can briefly meet the stars of some of your favorite
films and get their autograph or a posed photograph with them.
These events are very expensive to stage and most celebrities are paid for their personal appearances including all expenses.
These events are often heavily attended and we always suggest that you
arrive early. Celebrities are generally scheduled to arrive one hour
prior to the first scheduled showing of their film. They may or may
not be available to the public after a screening so we always suggest
that you purchase a souvenir and meet them prior to entering the
auditorium. Your early arrival also helps ensure that you can enjoy
the widest selection of seats when you watch the film. You must have
purchased an admission ticket to get in the line to meet our guests.
Depending on the length of the line and scheduling, our guest may
entertain questions from the audience and introduce the film from the
stage but this is entirely discretionary and varies from event to
event. Some of our guests make an extraordinary effort to ensure a
great experience, and this may back up the seating for later show times.
In most instances, there is a charge (most often $20) per autograph,
whether it is a photograph or item from here at the table or something
that you bring with you. You must have purchased an autograph in order
to get a posed photograph with our guest. In some cases, we do have a
professional photographer set up to take a picture with our guest, also
at a nominal charge, and in those instances you may only get a posed
photograph through this system. We do take credit cards and there is
also an ATM on premise.
You may always take a candid unposed photograph of our guest from elsewhere in the lobby at no additional charge.
