Marrakech prepares for International Film Festival

Cadogan Holidays is offering a unique chance to rub shoulders with the stars at this year’s International Film Festival held in Marrakech 17-22 November 2008. The celebrations take place over the stunning Place Djemaa el-Fna – Marrakech’s central square – which is transformed into a massive open air cinema.

Coinciding with this fantastic film festival Cadogan Holidays is offering fabulous rates for bed and breakfast packages at Kasbah Tamadot, Richard Branson’s luxurious Atlas Mountain retreat, with savings of up to 20%. This exquisite luxury retreat boasts 18 unique rooms and suites, a beautiful spa, heated indoor and outdoor pools, wonderful gardens, and telescopes available to those who fancy stargazing at this privileged location.

This celebration of international film has drawn in more than a fair share of stars in the past, including famous directors Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola and David Lynch, as well as actress Susan Sarandon and actor Colin Farrell.

A vast array of films have also used the beautiful backdrop of Marrakech from the Hitchcock's 1956 remake of his own The Man Who Knew Too Much to the upcoming November release Body of Lies, Ridley Scott’s latest epic starring Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio.
