TV Guide and Inside TV Toast TV's Biggest Event of the Year With the Biggest Party of the Night

3rd Annual After Party Celebrates Primetime Emmy Awards in BIG Style at Historic Hollywood Landmark The Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel

NEW YORK, Aug. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- TV Guide magazine announced today it is teaming up with recently launched sister-publication Inside TV to host its third-annual after party celebrating the biggest night of the year in television. Taking over tinsel-town hotspot, the legendary Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, this year's gala will celebrate the 57th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards Sunday, September 18th in Los Angeles.

"With our recent debut of Inside TV and our big plans to unveil a newly formatted TV Guide as a full-size, full-color magazine in October, this is a pivotal year for our publishing group," says John Loughlin, president of TV Guide Publishing Group. "With all of our exciting news, we are already in the mood to celebrate and what better night than the Emmys, the biggest television event of the year?"

From the Library Bar and legendary pool-side oasis, The Tropicana Bar, to the lobby and Blossom Room ballroom, The Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel will be transformed into a sumptuous, Copacabana-style setting, where the hippest in Hollywood will converge to toast 2005's Emmy nominees in lush style. Invitations to this year's VIP-only event will be distributed to Emmy nominees and key industry players in the weeks leading up to the event. Additional announcements including party design elements, live entertainment, and special guests are forthcoming.

Debuting with the October 17th issue, the new format TV Guide will be larger, easier-to-use, and more entertaining to read -- with more breaking news and features, more eye-catching photos, more insights and behind-the- scenes information on viewers' favorite shows and stars, and more reviews and recommendations. A leading weekly television entertainment and guidance magazine, TV Guide will include 100 full-color pages with approximately 40 pages of program listings, highlights and recommendations.
