The 2023/2024 awards calendar will be updated throughout the year as new dates for film’s biggest and best events, festivals, nominations and awards are announced.
After Everything Everywhere All At Once put the SXSW Film Festival on the map with the first ever Best Picture winner to come from the fest, it definitely has earned a place to keep our eyes on for the upcoming season, even if taking place right on top of last season’s Oscars probably doesn’t do it too many favors.
This year’s major film festivals will continue with Cannes May 16-27, then head to Venice from August 30 to September 9, Telluride from August 30 to September 4, Toronto from September 7-17, New York from September 29 to October 16 and AFI from October 25-29.
The Golden Globes came back but their late in the season return meant losing a valuable Sunday show to Critics’ Choice, who wasted no time in scooping it up. As a result, the 2023 Golden Globes were held on Tuesday, January 10 to an all-time low of 6.3M viewers. Despite having a show date announcement for next year (January 7, 2024) the beleaguered org is in limbo once again, with their efforts to increase diversity and triple their membership (they’re at about 300 now) being met by NBC with only a one year commitment. They are currently in the hunt for either another network or for NBC to return to the table. With a 10% drop in ratings from the 2021 edition of the show (there was no show in 2022) it’s going to be a tough call but their return seems imminent. Critics’ Choice will have staked January 14, 2024 for their 29th annual awards.
The SAG Awards lost their 25-year broadcast partner in TNT/TBS when Discovery’s buyout of Warner Bros (who owns TNT and TBS) meant ditching the awards show, leaving it in limbo as well. That is, until Netflix swooped in at the last minute to provide streaming for their show on their YouTube channel as a part of a long-term relationship that will see the streamer fully produce the live show and air it on Netflix beginning this season as The SAG Awards enters its 30th year. Dates to be announced.
Academy Awards nominations will be announced January 23 and the 96th Oscars will be held on March 10, 2024.
