This year's carpet has a new colour - champagne.
The new carpet colour was unveiled on Wednesday at the annual Oscars carpet rollout in Los Angeles' just days before Sunday's ceremony.
Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel, who was on hand for the carpet unveiling, said he was confident the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (A.M.P.A.S) had chosen the right colour.
"I think this is great. People are asking, is there going to be a problem this year? Is there going to be violence this year, and we certainly hope not.
"But if there is, I think the decision to go with a champagne carpet rather than a red carpet shows how confident we are that no blood will be shed," joked Kimmel, referring to last year's infamous Will Smith slap of Chris Rock.
Life-size Oscar statues will also decorate the runway for Sunday's ceremony.
