The ballroom is divided into five distinct pavilions that flank either side of this massive archway, each with its own quintessential Mediterranean dining experience at the 79th Annual Academy Awards Governor's Ball following the show on Feb. 25, 2007.

Each pavilion will display its own distinct color theme from the rustic gold ambers of one to the azure blue aqua of another, to the emeralds and magentas of still another.

Mood is everything when it comes to al fresco dining. Creative lighting in each ceiling treatment allows the sun's rays to cascade down through pergolas creating a romantic setting. Custom made sconces imbedded directly within the columns add to the decor.
