Bless the Winter Olympics. A little more breathing room next year.
Academy Moves 82nd Oscars to Early March
by Brian Brooks
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has moved back its date one week for the 2010 Academy Awards. The 82nd Oscars will take place March 7 next year, Academy President Sid Ganis announced Wednesday. Again, the ceremony will take place at the Kodak Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood, and will be televised live by the ABC Television Network. This year, the ceremony took place February 22nd, the final Sunday of February which is its traditional date.
An Academy spokesperson told indieWIRE the organization moved the Oscar ceremony to March 7 in order to avoid coinciding with the closing ceremonies of the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, which will be held on Sunday, February 28. Four years ago, the organization moved the date to early March in 2006 for the same reason. In 2004, AMPAS shifted the Oscars to late February from late March.
The nominations for the 82nd Academy Awards will be held on Tuesday, February 2, 2010.
