Hollywood, along with the showbiz culture, is defined by tabloid gossip, fashion, movie critics, paparazzi, soul-soothing films, good looks and if you can guess the biggest and most validating one-- the Award shows!

With the successful wrap-up of the 2024 Oscars Awards which took place at the beginning of the year on Sunday, March 10, 2024, at the Dolby Theater where we saw several talented faces of Hollywood being honored and recognized with some wonderful awards, Hollywood’s focus now turns to Emmys.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, several 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.

The Emmys were delayed due to the writers' and actors' strikes in Hollywood. The original show was scheduled for September 2023 but was moved four months later so that actors and writers could participate in the celebration.

Let's take a look at the new date for the Emmys alongside key dates for 2025’s Academy Awards and Golden Globes. (All times listed are in Pacific Time. PT)
