Vanity Fair Vice President and Publisher Edward J. Menicheschi has announced the slate of events for the thirteenth installment of “Campaign Hollywood,” the magazine’s annual week-long celebration leading up to the Academy Awards.

Co-sponsored by Vanity Fair advertisers including Chrysler and L’Oréal Paris, “Campaign Hollywood” reflects the glamour, art, and excitement of Oscar Week in Hollywood, while spotlighting brands and charities in a way that only Vanity Fair can.

Hot off the heels of its acclaimed Super Bowl commercial, the Chrysler brand is the automotive sponsor of “Campaign Hollywood 2012” for the second year. Adding to its rich history of craftsmanship, intuitive innovation, and technology, Chrysler focuses on restoring glamour to the American automotive industry in a new initiative dedicated to style. By partnering with Vanity Fair, Chrysler will allow the magazine’s V.I.P. guests to arrive in luxury throughout “Campaign Hollywood” week in the sophisticated and smart Chrysler 300. In addition, a 2012 Chrysler 300 and the new 2012 Fiat 500 will be on display at select “Campaign Hollywood” events, including a Chrysler event with Eva Longoria to benefit her new foundation, The Eva Longoria Foundation.

L’Oréal Paris is once again the exclusive beauty sponsor of “Campaign Hollywood” with presence at select events throughout the week, including product displays, sampling, and touch-up stations. The beauty brand, along with Fiat, will also co-host D.J. Night featuring a special performance by London-based Nervo.

In celebration of “Campaign Hollywood,” the newly launched vanityfairagenda.com presents Social L.A.: an online social retailing experience created in conjunction with the wildly popular social-networking app Foursquare. Social L.A. will become the mobile destination guide on what to do, see, and experience in Los Angeles during awards season. Vanity Fair Agenda also hosted the “Red Carpet Tweet” Contest to locate a Twitter correspondent to help report from Los Angeles during “Campaign Hollywood.” A winner will be announced on vanityfairagenda.com the week of February 13 and his/her tweets will be live on vanityfairagenda.com during “Campaign Hollywood.”

Additionally, Vanity Fair magazine launched the all-new Vanity Fair Hollywood app, available on the iPhone, iPad, and Android Smartphone. Presented by Chrysler, the app allows users to vote for their favorite awards season nominees and share their picks via their social networks, including Facebook.

From Monday, February 20 to Sunday, February 26, the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel will be transformed into an all-encompassing Vanity Fair experience. Located in the heart of Hollywood, the historic 300-room hotel will feature select advertisers seamlessly integrated in a manner that will spotlight each brand while enhancing visitors’ experience—whether they’re dropping by for a drink or staying the entire week. L’Oréal Paris and Stella Artois will be present in each of the Roosevelt’s 300 rooms and a Fiat 500 vehicle will be on display at the hotel’s entrance.

Menicheschi says, “I’m thrilled with the lineup for this year’s ‘Campaign Hollywood.’ We’ve combined some fantastic causes a great group of sponsors. Throughout this series of partnerships, we are truly bringing the magazine to life.”
