November 8, 2012 - Lincoln premieres at Grauman's Chinese Theatre tonight

The AFI FEST closes tonight with the premiere of the highly anticipated movie Lincoln at Grauman's Chinese Theatre tonight!  Stars from the movie (Daniel Day-Lewis, Sally Field, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, David Strathairn, James Spader, Tommy Lee Jones and other cast members) and director Steven Spielberg are all scheduled to start walking the red carpet at 6:00 p.m.  If you're planning on attending for celebrity spotting, I highly recommend arriving early.

The AFI FEST have been offering free tickets to their screenings and premieres all week long.  Not saying that will be the case here, but it might be worth your while to stop by and see if they're available.

Grauman's Chinese Theatre is located at 6925 Hollywood Boulevard and directions can be found here.  You can park at Hollywood & Highland Center for 4 hours for $2.00 after validation (which you can get at the information booth without having to purchase anything).  For further information, please call Grauman's Chinese Theatre at (323) 465-4847.   

November 7, 2012 - The Britannia Awards are being held in Beverly Hills tonight

The Britannia Awards are taking place tonight in Beverly Hills at the Beverly Hilton with a large list of celebrities scheduled to attend!  Daniel Day-Lewis, Daniel Craig, Quentin Tarantino, Trey Parker and Matt Stone are all scheduled to attend and be honored tonight.  Harrison Ford, Steven Spielberg and Josh Gad are just a few of the names listed as presenting awards tonight.

This event starts at 6:30 PM, so you'll want to arrive early for celebrity spotting.  This event is taking place inside the hotel, so I'm not sure what the layout will be.  You may be able to sit in the lobby, as long as you're dressed nicely and behave yourself.  The Hollywood Film Awards were held here a few weeks ago and there was a barricade set up where some celebrities would come over and sign, pose for pictures, etc.
