Stratford, Ont. - About 130 Justin Bieber fans will get to see the teen singer's biopic "Never Say Never" a day before it hits the theatres next week.
Paramount has confirmed a special advance screening of the film on Feb. 10 at the Stratford Cinemas in Bieber's hometown of Stratford, Ont.
The free tickets will be made available through a lottery being co-ordinated by the Stratford Shakespeare Festival, which helped arrange the advance screening.
Fans wanting to enter the lottery can do so by calling 1-800-567-1600 this Saturday, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.
The winners' names will be drawn next Tuesday on the steps of the Festival's Avon Theatre, where Bieber used to busk.
Stratford Mayor Dan Mathieson says the screening is a great gesture on Paramount's part.
"Justin is a big supporter of Stratford and he has brought the city a great deal of honour -- as well as a lot of publicity," Mathieson said Wednesday in a release.
"We're lucky to have such an amazing hometown boy," he said.
"The film reflects on Justin's childhood in Stratford and many residents feel a real connection to his time here," Mathieson added. "This screening allows them to share in the excitement of the film's release."
Bieber received four Juno nominations on Tuesday.
He's up for artist of the year, album of the year, pop album of the year and for a fan choice award.
