Molly Tue, October 22, 2013 
Do you live in Eastern Tennessee? Well, lucky you! Knoxville-based Regal Entertainment Group has quite a coup for their 2013 Variety — The Children’s Charity of Eastern Tennessee benefit: an exclusive advance screening of the upcoming movie The Hunger Games: Catching Fire with appearances by Catching Fire star Liam Hemsworth and director Francis Lawrence.
The event will take place Tuesday, Nov. 19, the Regal Pinnacle Stadium 18 in Turkey Creek, TN.
"Regal is rolling out the red carpet in Knoxville to honor Liam Hemsworth and Francis Lawrence who are scheduled to attend this fundraiser for special needs children in the region. I'm certain that East Tennesseans will turn out in force to support this special screening before the film debuts in theatres," stated Greg Dunn president and chief operating officer of Regal Entertainment Group. "We extend our sincerest gratitude to our friends at Lionsgate Entertainment for making this possible. The fact that this screening is benefiting Variety – The Children’s Charity shows the level of cooperation between our two companies.”
A limited number of tickets will be available to the public for purchase through a drawing via the Regal Crown Club. To be eligible for the drawing, those interested must use a valid email address to sign up for the club - a free rewards service that offers movie tickets and refreshments on a points system, awarded to moviegoers as they make purchases at any Regal theater. Those who use their Regal Crown Club card from Oct. 22 through Nov. 1 will be notified through their provided email address information on how they can enter the sweepstakes. Those who are drawn in the sweepstakes will then have the opportunity to purchase two tickets to the screening for $50 each. In addition, a grand prize winner will be selected in the sweepstakes and awarded four free tickets to the screening, plus limo transportation, access to the VIP tent and the red carpet arrival of Hemsworth.
Regal Crown Club memberships are available at the box offices of all Knoxville Regal locations.
Ticket holders will be treated to a catered reception at the theater before the screening.
