The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and ABC has announced the 94th Oscars ceremony will move to Sunday 27 March 2022. The show, which will air live on ABC from the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, was originally scheduled for 27 February 2022.
The eligibility period for Academy Awards consideration will return to the standard December 31 deadline: a feature film must have a qualifying release date between 1 March 2021 and 31 December 2021. This year, which is still impacted by the pandemic, eligibility requirements for the 94th Academy Awards will be consistent with the addendums made for the 93rd Awards season.
Complete 94th Awards rules and specialty category submission deadlines will be announced in June. Following this year, the Academy intends to expand the qualifying requirements for the 95th Awards.
All dates for the 94th Academy Awards are subject to change.
The 94th Oscars will be held on Sunday 27 March 2022, at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood and will be televised live on ABC and in more than 200 territories worldwide.
