Critics Choice Awards set for January 4, 2026
The ceremony will be held at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica and will air live on E! and USA Network from 7 to 10 pm ET/PT.
The Critics' Choice Awards will continue its combined film and television awards format, honouring the year's best in cinematic, televised, and streaming achievement.
The announcement comes as a surprise, given that the Golden Globes have traditionally taken place on the first weekend of the new year.
However, the Golden Globes have moved to January 11, allowing the Critics' Choice Awards to take the lead as the first major televised show of 2026.
The Critics' Choice Association has partnered with E! and USA Network for the second year in a row, expanding its reach and audience.
"The Critics Choice Association is excited to kick off awards season as the first major televised show of 2026," said CCA CEO Joey Berlin, as quoted by Deadline.
This year's ceremony promises to be an unforgettable event, with notable speeches and momentum-building moments that champion the industry's best.
The first weekend of January is shaping up to be a significant one for awards season, with the Palm Springs Film Festival set to hold its annual Awards Gala on January 3, a day before the Critics' Choice Awards.
TV nominations will be announced on December 4, and film nominations on December 5.
The 31st annual Critics' Choice Awards show will be executive produced by Bob Bain Productions and Berlin Entertainment. (ANI)

The song Janaab-e-Aali has been a highlight of their camaraderie, with both stars leaving fans amazed by their electrifying dance moves. The makers of the song have now released a behind-the-scenes video, giving audiences a glimpse of the film's production. Hrithik Roshan on dancing with Jr NTR in Janaab-e-Aali In the BTS video, Hrithik expressed his admiration for Jr. NTR and revealed how he felt validated working alongside him. He said, 'I always thought that I was being looked at as the guy who had too many tantrums about the flooring, about the shoes, and about how sticky the floor should be. And for the first time I had another performer in front of me (Jr. NTR), who was asking about the same things and checking the same things. He was checking the floor, the shoes, and putting gum on the shoe. It validated my 25 years of throwing that tantrum.' Hrithik is also seen approaching Jr. NTR in the video, jokingly telling him, 'Ek banda to mila mujhe jo sochta hai the same way. Nobody else! (Finally, I found one person who thinks the same way as me. Nobody else does!)'
