Award ceremony for films of 2021 / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 94th Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), honored films released from March 1, 2021, to December 31, 2021, and took place on March 27, 2022, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, beginning at 5:00 p.m. PDT / 8:00 p.m. EDT. The ceremony was scheduled after its usual late-February date to avoid conflicting with the 2022 Winter Olympics held in Beijing, China and Super Bowl LVI held in nearby Inglewood, California.[2] During the ceremony, the AMPAS presented Academy Awards (commonly referred to as Oscars) in 23 categories. The ceremony, televised in the United States by ABC, was produced by Will Packer and Shayla Cowan and was directed by Glenn Weiss.[3] Actresses Regina Hall, Amy Schumer, and Wanda Sykes hosted the show for the first time.[4] Two days earlier, in a ceremony held at the Ray Dolby Ballroom of the Ovation Hollywood complex in Hollywood, the Academy held its 12th annual Governors Awards ceremony.[5]
