The Hollywood Dreamz Film International Film Festival is pleased to
announce that we will once again return to the fantastic luxury theaters, THE BRENDEN THEATERS which is located in the Palms Casino and Hotel at 4321 West Flamingo Road, Las Vegas NV 89103
Last season we had a host hotel in place but it seems that our guests were being charged more than folks who did not use our portal. That being said, there are more than 650 hotels in Las Vegas you are never more than ten minutes from any of the venues that we will be using for Seminars, Parties, Specialty Dinners, Award Shows and Special Events.
Here are links to all of the hotels and their special deals, please view them and make the best choice for you. Please note: August is the slowest month in Vegas so there is a very good chance that you'll find rooms at great discounts.
