About the Event
The 2010 Green Globe Film Awards, will feature surprise performances by Hollywood's and Asia's leading entertainers and will be one of Hollywood's largest film award programs with 100 Viewers' Choice Awards being selected by film lovers, critics and movie viewers from around the world.

The Awards will be presented during the March 23rd dinner gala at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel's California Ballroom in Los Angeles. The Bonaventure was selected for its immense size and capacity to host the largest dinner gala of any hotel in the state, as well as its history of being one of the most sought after movie locations for filmmakers endeavoring to present Los Angeles in a modern and elegant setting.

Film awards will be presented to major motion picture filmmakers and actors, as well as top environmental, humanitarian, independent short films, animated and international films. The Green Globe Film Awards Committee works in cooperation with major film awards programs internationally to implement the awards' annual international theme, with the 2010 international film category theme being 'Asian Films'.

By attending Hollywood's largest celebration of people, planet and motion pictures which will honor the power film has to inspire environmental awareness, we will be helping to give back. The organizing committee of the Green Globe Film Awards will commit a portion of the proceeds from the dinner gala towards planting over 500,000 trees near the equator, purifying over 1,000,000 liters of water in places of need, establishing 10 schools in countries of crisis and providing 100 scholarships for sustainable management education. This will be accomplished through cooperation with UNICEF and a number of sustainability-related organizations.
