Oscars weekend is finally here and no one is more excited than the stars (except for us at HOLA! USA, perhaps)! After a bustling 2019 awards season, Hollywood is ready to let loose and celebrate the biggest ceremony of the year on Sunday, February 24. Stars like Eva Longoria and Yalitza Aparicio are gearing (and glamming) up for the sacred telecast just as you'd expect: by attending lavish events. Scroll through our glittering gallery to step inside the hottest pre-Academy Awards parties around!

 

MPTF's The Night Before Party

A star-studded host committee, Academy Awards nominees and presenters, along with some of the most powerful industry influencers united at the 17th annual ‘Night Before’ party to benefit MPTF. The $5 million raised during the evening supported their industry colleagues and friends who benefit from MPTF’s charitable programs and services such as financial assistance, crisis counseling, care giving support, and of course the legendary retirement facility in Woodland Hills that is “home” to film and television veterans alike.

Glenn Close, Regina King, Rami Malek and George Clooney were among the insanely A-list filled event.
