A week earlier, the 93 Academy Awards announced its postponement in the year 2021 with new eligibility guidelines, which has happened for the fourth time in the history till date. And now the Golden Globe Awards which are usually scheduled to take place in the beginning of the year are postponed to 28 February, 2021.
The organizers took the joint decision to delay the prestigious award ceremony to give equal opportunity to the film and television community from across the world without compromising on the quality of the award show. To accommodate the international and foreign language films new guidelines will be released soon by the organizers consisting of voting dates, eligibility and final nomination announcement.
The humongous news was shared on the official social media page of Golden Globe Awards which states: “We are excited to announce the 78th annual Golden Globe® Awards will take place on Sunday, February 28, 2021. The ceremony will air live coast to coast 5-8 p.m. PT/8-11 p.m. ET on NBC from The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California.”
