What’s on Where at ADFF
04.10.2012 -
Marina Mall and Emirates Palace are the places to be this
October if you want some of the movie magic to rub off on you
during this year's Festival.
Tickets are available from the Festival Box Office at Marina
Mall from 1 October - but the real excitement begins when ADFF On
Location opens in the ground floor exhibition area from 8
October. First launched last year, On Location offers a host
of ways for the whole family to enjoy the festival fun.
You can learn more about the films screening at the information
booth and take part in interactive workshops and
demonstrations. Once the Festival starts, you'll feel like
you're in Hollywood when filmmakers walk the red carpet at Marina
Mall before their films screen at VOX Cinemas. As a special
treat, for every AED 250 spent at Marina Mall from 8 to 20 October,
shoppers are entitled to enter one of our three draws to win
fantastic prizes.
On Location is open from 1 pm to 10 pm throughout the
Festival.
On 13 October, Marina Mall will be home to our Family Day, a
whole day of family-oriented activities including four films
specially selected for the whole family to enjoy.
When the Festival officially opens on 11 October, the action
starts at Emirates Palace. Gala screenings will take place there,
including the Opening Night film, Arbitrage, whose star, Hollywood legend Richard Gere,
will be the first of many celebrated actors and filmmakers on the
red carpet.
A full
programme of festival screenings takes place at Emirates
Palace, along with workshops, talks and seminars. This prestigious
venue also has its own Festival Box Office, where you can buy and
collect tickets daily from noon until 30 minutes after the start of
each session.
