The power outage affected part of Hollywood Boulevard’s robust tourist district, including Ovation Hollywood, the complex set to host the 95th Academy Awards.
According to several media, the news of the suspension first appeared on Saturday afternoon. Located across the street from the Dolby, the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, where many A-list stars recuperate for the Oscars red carpet, is experiencing a series of power losses and recoveries.
A report in Variety states that Ovation Hollywood has seen several key areas go completely dark, including the credentialing and security offices. The Dolby Theater, which will host Sunday’s Academy Awards ceremony, is also part of the Ovation site.
Power was reportedly quickly restored to the Dolby Auditorium after the brief indoor outage. Rehearsals are going on as planned.
