Red Carpet Rolled Out for Oscars

The red carpet at the Oscars is over 250 meters long this year, about ten meters wide, and covers a section of the usually busy Hollywood Boulevard. Dozens of camera crews and photographers followed the "Roll Out".

On Sunday, the Oscar celebrities will walk here to the entrance of the Dolby Theater, where the Oscars will be awarded for the 97th time (in the night to Monday CET). Until then, dozens of helpers are working on the famous runway. They trim edges and weld seams. The building complex in the heart of Hollywood is recognizable from afar - thanks to a huge portrait of this year's Oscar host Conan O'Brien, who is moderating the gala for the first time. The face of the US comedian shines in gold spray on the facade. O'Brien himself helped with the rolling out of the carpet. However, he joked that he doesn't have muscles like the professionals. Again this year, a plastic roof will be cautiously stretched over the promenade. Temperatures are expected to rise to 28 degrees Celsius this week, but a weather drop with rain and cold is expected precisely on Oscar Sunday.
