The British Invasion Continues As They Celebrate 50 years in Los Angeles with BritWeek!
Events to include Duran Duran concert, David Lean 100th Birthday Film Retrospective, BAFTA/LA British Comedy Festival, British Celebrity Soccer Matches, Brit Walk, plus a VIP Invitation-Only Champagne Launch at the British Consul General’s Residence
Spring in Los Angeles this year will have a distinctly British flavor. BritWeek 2008(April 24-May 10) will feature pop concerts, British fashion designers, film evenings, comedy screenings and a comedy awards gala dinner, as well as soccer and a "Brit Walk" bringing together the many British luxury goods and fashion retailers in Los Angeles.
The Brits are also celebrating the Golden Anniversary of their Consul General's official Residence in Hancock Park, with invitation-only receptions to experience years of British links with Los Angeles - links which include the amazingly strong influences that the Brits have had on the entertainment industries in LA, and also the major investments that British companies have made in LA over the past half century, making the UK the largest foreign investor here.
