The 2021 Oscars will be taking place today (April 25, 2021), after a months-long delay caused by the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic.
The 93rd Academy Awards will look a little different this year. After delaying the show by two months, the Academy also changed awards eligibility, accommodating films released in 2020 through to February 2021.
Here’s everything you need to know to watch the 2021 Oscars
The Oscars are spread over two locations this year: Los Angeles Union Station and its usual stomping ground, Dolby Theater. Only nominees, their guest and presenters have been given the green light to attend. Nominees who don’t attend won’t be allowed to Zoom in. Plus, since the show is a televised event, guests won’t have to wear a mask while the cameras are rolling.
The Oscars start at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET tonight.
