On Friday 8 February we welcomed a host of stars at the iconic Savoy Hotel for our largest evening of entertainment and fundraising yet, the BAFTA Film Gala 2019. Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, we were delighted to welcome guests including Eddie Redmayne, Sir Patrick Stewart, Andy Serkis, Jeremy Irons, Noel Clarke, Jason Isaacs and even our EE British Academy Film Awards 2019 host, Joanna Lumley, for an dinner, perormances and an auction - all in support of our Learning and New Talent Initiatives.
Claudia was joined on stage by our BAFTA Young Presenters, Daniel, Braydon and Tianna, to tell our guests why schemes like BAFTA Kids and BAFTA Scholarships are so important for supporting emerging talent in the film, games and television industries.
All of the money raised at the Film Gala will enable us to help a wealth of new and emerging talent breakthrough into the Film, Television and Games industries and support the very best creative work. BAFTA believes everyone with talent, regardless of background, deserves the chance to shine. Find out more >
