Hollywood is heading to the desert!
George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Charlize Theron are just a few of the stars expected to attend The 23rd Annual Palm Spring International Film Festival – and RadarOnline.com has all the details about what to expect at the star-studded festival this week.
Though the festival kicks off on Thursday at the Opening Night Gala, where Emily Blunt will be on hand for a screening of her movie Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, it is the Awards Gala on Saturday night that attracts Hollywood’s A-list.
Presented by Cartier and hosted by Mary Hart, the Awards Gala will be held at the Palm Springs Convention Center, with honorees including George Clooney, Glenn Close, Brad Pitt, Michelle Williams, Jessica Chastain and the film Young Adult.
Where will the stars be staying and partying during the festival?
The Parker Palm Springs is where the stars head after the Awards Gala to party the night away, and several of them end up crashing in one of the resort’s ultra-swanky suites, which run in the thousands of dollars per night.
