The annual Golden Globe Awards ceremony for film and television has been postponed to February next year, organizers said yesterday.

The Golden Globes ceremony, which kicks off Hollywood’s awards season, will now take place on 28th of February instead of its usual slot on the first Sunday in January.

The decision follows the postponement by two months of the Oscars to 25th of April because of Coronavirus pandemic. The ceremony, hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, will take place on the originally scheduled date of the Oscars, which has been pushed back two months. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the group behind the awards, will provide details about eligibility, voting period and nominations timing in the weeks ahead.
