Invite Only – The British Academy of Film and Television Arts Los Angeles (BAFTA Los Angeles) will celebrate Emmy weekend with their annual TV Tea Party. Launched in 2003, the TV Tea Party is one of the most prestigious events in the annual awards calendar. The 2017 Tea will be held the Saturday afternoon prior to The Primetime Emmy Awards, and will celebrate excellence in television by honoring this year’s nominees from the UK, US and beyond. Emmy Nominees, celebrities, BAFTA members, and leading television executives will enjoy traditional British tea and scones and cocktails, as BAFTA Los Angeles raises awareness and support for its Access for All campaign, a commitment to ensuring that talented individuals are offered a clear pathway to careers in the entertainment industry, uninhibited by background, demographics or personal circumstance. The campaign also includes scholarship, education and community initiatives, allowing the organization to discover, support and nurture talented professionals.

The event is supported by Presenting Sponsor BBC America and Premier Partner the GREAT Britain Campaign.
