Starting in 2029, the Oscars will be streamed on YouTube instead of broadcast on ABC. ABC will continue to air the show through 2028, including the 100th Academy Awards ceremony.
Beginning in 2029, YouTube will be the only place to watch the Oscars worldwide through 2033. This includes the live awards ceremony, plus events like the red carpet, the Governors Awards, and the announcement of who’s been nominated.
The Academy and YouTube have formed a broad, long-term partnership that will make YouTube the official home of the Oscars and all of the Academy’s content throughout the year, according to Academy CEO Bill Kramer and President Lynette Howell Taylor.
The Academy is a global organization, and this collaboration will help us share our work with the widest possible international audience. This will be a valuable benefit for both our members and the broader film industry.
The Oscars are the first of the major U.S. awards shows—including the Grammys, Emmys, and Tonys—to move entirely to streaming. The ceremony will be available for free on YouTube, which has roughly 2 billion viewers, and also for those who subscribe to YouTube TV. The financial terms of the agreement haven’t been revealed.
YouTube CEO Neal Mohan stated that the Oscars are a vital part of our culture, recognizing outstanding achievements in filmmaking and artistic expression. He explained that the partnership with the Academy will allow them to share this celebration of art and entertainment with a global audience, encouraging a new wave of creativity and film appreciation while respecting the Oscars’ long-standing tradition.
The growing popularity of YouTube shows how big events are now embracing online streaming to connect with people worldwide, instead of relying on traditional TV broadcasts.
