Critics Choice and Golden Globes postponed — awards shows in January 2022

In light of the Omicron variant of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the Critics Choice Awards are being postponed in 2022. The awards were originally scheduled for Jan. 9, 2022, but the association released a statement about postponing the 27th Annual Critics Choice Awards in 2021.

Additionally, the Golden Globes ceremony was to take place on Jan. 9, 2022. However, like the Critics Choice Awards, the Golden Globes are postponed, but for different reasons. Early in 2021, NBC said they wouldn’t air the ceremony in light of the controversies surrounding a lack of diverse voices within the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and the group’s voting practices. 

Here’s what other awards shows to expect in January 2022: 

  • Jan. 7: AFI Awards ceremony
  • Jan. 15: Oscars Governors Awards
  • Jan. 31: 2022 Grammys 

Fans can watch the 2022 Grammys on CBS or stream the awards show live and on-demand from Paramount Plus at 8–11:30 PM ET / 5–8:30 PM PT.
