The 92nd Academy Awards got off to a wet and damp start as rain played spoilsport and soaked the tents outside the Dolby Theatre, causing leaks on the red carpet.
However, the orgsers were up to the task as trashcans draped in red fabric were placed on the red carpet to catch the falling water. Other staff members did their best to clear the pools, which were formed above the tent, reported Variety.
During the ceremony, the Oscars will be presented in 24 categories.
The 92nd Academy Awards are produced by Lynette Howell Taylor ("A Star Is Born") and Stephe Allain ("Dear White People").
Glenn Weiss is serving as director.
All the arrangements have been taken care of as Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is working towards wrapping the Dolby Theatre in multiple cordons of security.
