78th Golden Globe Awards
The 78th Golden Globe Awards will honor the best in American television of 2020, as well as film in 2020 and early 2021[1], as chosen by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. The ceremony will take place on February 28, 2021, nearly two months later than normal, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cinema and on television.[2] Produced by Dick Clark Productions and the HFPA, and airing live on NBC in the United States, this will be the first bi-coastal ceremony, with Tina Fey co-hosting from the Rainbow Room in New York City, and Amy Poehler co-hosting from The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California.[3]
