The annual search is on for “Stars” to attend as VIPs!  Each year, Raleighwood looks for people bearing a striking resemblance to a movie star (past or present) or a character from a movie.  If you, or someone you know, fit the role, email a photo in “character” along with contact info (name, phone, email) to SpecialEvents@RaleighwoodMovies.com.

Winners will be notified and invited to attend the event as an “A-List Guest” and be treated like a Movie Star;  get VIP treatment at the gala; walk the red carpet, be available for photos by “paparazzi,” pose for photos with “fans’ and be seated in a special VIP section along with some additional perks and goodies.

The costume and look-alike contest has Grand Prize packages for the audience favorite and best dressed star or character look-alike; including tickets to NC Symphony, Hair or Nail Salon services, gift certificates and more.
Even if you are not pre-picked to attend as a VIP, be sure to come to Raleighwood’s Academy Awards night in costume and enter the contest. You could win one of these great prize packages.
