Film Premieres

Hey All.

My sister won a couple of tickets for the Divergent film premiere happening in London this Sunday.

Just wondering what's it like? Where will we be standing? How easy is it will it be for us to get some photos with the celebs?


Thanks

    If you won tickets to the premier - you will be walking down the red carpet and be in the cinema (so get your best glad rags on - cos the paps will be there taking pics)

    I've won tickets to a premiere in Leicester Square and have been to another one in the past. You walk down the red carpet into the cinema. The celebs are usually doing interviews to the side of the red carpet and you're ushered in so if you're cheeky you may be able to get a piccy :)

    Hmmm so would it be OK to stand behind the barriers where all the fans are instead of going straight in?

    Oh and BTW, the info from Mark Meets website is incorrect, the film premier actually starts at 2pm :)

    Where: Odeon Leicester Square

    When: March 30th

    Time: 1.30pm (Talent arrive 2pm, Movie starts at 3pm)

    Cast attending: Shailene Woodley, Theo James and Kate Winslet

    not too sure. I won tickets to a twilight premiere and we were ushered.. fast down the red carpet.
    To get behind the barriers people had queued for many many hours to get a wrist band to actually stand there.
    might be worth asking promoter though.
    Hope that helps!
