The third annual Cinema Against AIDS Dubai event is a black-tie gala that will feature a cocktail reception, dinner, live auction, and entertainment. Presented by the Dubai International Film Festival, the event will benefit amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research.
BACKGROUND
amfAR’s first Cinema Against AIDS benefit, h...osted by Founding International Chairman Dame Elizabeth Taylor, was held in Cannes during the 1993 International Film Festival. Since then, this annual black-tie gala has established itself as the most consistently exciting and well-publicized party held during the festival. Due to the immense and continued success of the Cinema Against AIDS event in Cannes, amfAR has expanded the Cinema Against AIDS brand to benefits held in conjunction with the international film festivals in Dubai, Venice, Rome, Toronto, and Park City, Utah (Sundance). Since 1993, these signature amfAR benefits have played a pivotal role in focusing attention on the continued fight against AIDS and have generated more than $48 million for the Foundation’s AIDS research programs.
The Cinema Against AIDS events have routinely become the most eagerly anticipated and best-publicized parties held during the various festivals where they are held, consistently drawing exciting and diverse guest lists from the worlds of fashion, music, business, and international society.
