The centerpiece of the Hollywood & Highland Center is The Kodak Theatre. Opened in November 2001, it is the official permanent home of the annual Academy Awards ceremony. The 3,400-seat, 180,000 square feet theater also offers year-round concerts, Broadway shows and other theatrical events. Built at a cost of $94 million, Kodak Theatre was designed by the Rockwell Group. The two-story entrance walkway features backlit glass plaques for each Best Picture Oscar winner on limestone portals.
