The Academy Awards ceremony takes place this weekend – here’s all the information on when and where it’s happening and how to watch.

When is it happening?
The 92nd Academy Awards takes place on Sunday February 9. Whilst the event usually takes place towards the end of February, this year it’s been moved forward.

Where is it happening?
The ceremony will be held at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles.

When can I watch?
Sky Cinema Oscars, a dedicated channel which airs between January 27 and February 14, will show the ceremony live in the UK from 1am UK time.

You can watch directly on Sky or via a Sky Cinema Pass on Now TV – if you’re not signed up to Now TV, they offer a free 7 day trial so you can still watch for free if you subscribe now.

If you can’t stay up that late, the ceremony itself is repeated the following day on Monday evening.

Who is hosting this year’s ceremony?
Following on from last year, the 2020 Oscar ceremony will not have a host again – but viewers have been told to expect “stars” and “surprises” on the night.
