We finally have firm details on the event in Knoxville that came to light a couple of months ago. This isn’t a full-blown Hollywood premiere, rather it is a charity benefit, something that the theater involved has a long history in doing.
According to organizers:
“Regal has annually presented major-film premieres in Knoxville since 2003 to benefit Variety – The Children’s Charity of Eastern Tennessee, and interest in “New Moon” has been unprecedented…”By far, this is going to be our most successful event,” said Greg Dunn, president and CEO of Regal Entertainment Group, who estimated the benefit screening will raise in excess of $400,000 for Variety, a Regal-founded organization that aids numerous local and area children’s charities.”
There are some very specific details listed here on how you can enter a lottery for two tickets that cost $100 a piece (Remember it’s a high price because the money is going to a children’s hospital). It would seem that the lottery system is in place to prevent scalpers from running wild.
TY to the multiple people who emailed in.
