How to Watch the 96th Academy Awards: Streaming Options for 2024 Oscars

The 96th Academy Awards, an event eagerly anticipated by cinephiles worldwide, promises an evening of glamour, excitement, and recognition for the finest achievements in cinema. Hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, the ceremony will be held at the prestigious Dolby Theater in Los Angeles. While attending in person is a dream for many, the majority of viewers will be tuning in from the comfort of their homes. Here’s everything you need to know about watching and streaming the 2024 Oscars.

When Are the Oscars?

Mark your calendars for Sunday, March 10th, when the 96th Academy Awards will grace screens across the globe. This year, the Oscars airtime has been moved up by one hour, with the official stream commencing at 7 pm ET.

How to Watch the Awards Ceremony

For those with cable subscriptions, simply tune in to ABC to catch the live broadcast of the Oscars. However, cable is not a prerequisite for enjoying the show. Viewers can utilize over-the-air antennas to stream ABC for free, along with other locally available channels.

Alternatively, numerous live TV streaming services offer ABC as part of their channel bundles. While some may offer free trials, subscriptions to platforms like Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, and FuboTV typically cost around $75 per month after introductory offers expire. The flexibility of month-to-month payments makes these streaming services an attractive alternative to traditional cable contracts.

Additionally, a livestream of the ceremony, tailored for American Sign Language viewers, will be accessible on YouTube during the event.
