Glamour and Excellence at HAPAWARDS 2023: A Night to Remember in Los Angeles

Glendale, CA, October 7, 2023

In Glendale, California, at the famous “The Alex Theatre”, the seventh annual HAPAwards, the Hollywood and African Prestigious Awards, took place. These awards, which celebrate excellence in the arts, were presented to the city of Los Angeles in an elegant and curated ceremony that ran from the afternoon into the evening of October 7. We kept an eye on fashion and the most stylish looks and details seen on the runway, and listened to the emotions of the participants.

We were there in person to feel the atmosphere and energy of the evening in Los Angeles. The guests were immediately welcomed with a refreshment area, given the hot week in Los Angeles, in an elegant Red Carpet where, under the supervision of the very elegant Priscilla Valldejuli, the guests and winners were greeted, photographed and interviewed by the various media present.

We noticed, among others, I Hearts Radio, from New York, with one of its famous frontmen, Larry. As always, we kept an eye on fashion and the most stylish looks and details seen on the runway, and listened to the emotions of the participants.

What always distinguishes the guests of the Hollywood HAPAwards is their joy in their ability to express themselves, their culture and their own style through details of accessories. Below we highlight some images from the evening with a selection of the best looks and accessories seen on the night of the year.

Afterwards, inside the theater, in a bright and fresh atmosphere, the award winners were presented, including young and emerging actors about whom we will hear more in the near future. In the speeches, touching thanks to families or close people, as in the Italian culture, where blood ties, in addition to those chosen during the course of life, are always a source of energy and priority.

Very soon, the full list of 2023 winners.
