Awards Season Calendar: Key Dates for Oscars, Emmys, Tonys and Other Major Events

With the 2024 Oscars now in the rearview mirror, Hollywood’s focus turns to Emmy season. A number of TV awards shows are set to take place over the next few months, including the BAFTA TV Awards, the newly announced Gotham TV Awards, the Critics Choice Real TV Awards and, of course, the Primetime Emmys, which are returning to September after the strike-delayed 2023 Emmys was pushed to January 2024.
