This year’s bumper awards season is about to reach its crescendo with what promises to be a jam-packed Oscars.
In a matter of days, some of the biggest stars in Hollywood will once again gather at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles for the 96th Academy Awards.
The question is – when does it all get underway…?
When actually are the 2024 Oscars?
The fun begins this Sunday night, when the red carpet will be full of this year’s nominees, presenters and other A-list guests.
The actual ceremony will then get underway at 11pm on Sunday 10 March – and this year, the whole thing is being broadcast live on ITV, so you don’t need to miss a thing.
Alternatively, for those who don’t feel the need to stay up until the wee small hours, a highlights show will also be available to stream on ITVX from Monday 11 March.
