About the Awards Show

Nikki Glaser, a comedian, hosted the Golden Globe Awards again in 2026. This was her second time hosting.

For the first time ever, the Golden Globes added a new award category: Best Podcast. This award recognized podcasts that made a big impact over the past year. The nominees were chosen from a list of 25 popular podcasts. The Golden Globes organization was proud to be the first major awards show to celebrate this type of entertainment. The podcast Good Hang with Amy Poehler ultimately won this new award.

The nominations for all 28 awards were unveiled on December 8, 2025. Actors Skye P. Marshall and Marlon Wayans announced the nominees at a press conference. The main awards ceremony took place at the Beverly Hilton in California. It was shown live on CBS and streamed on Paramount+ on January 11, 2026.

Special Lifetime Achievement Awards

Before the main show, two special Lifetime Achievement Awards were given out. These awards celebrate people who have had amazing careers in film and television. The Cecil B. DeMille Award went to Helen Mirren. The Carol Burnett Award was given to Sarah Jessica Parker. These awards were presented during a special show called "Golden Eve" on January 8, 2026.

During the main ceremony, the award for Best Original Score was announced online instead of being shown live on TV. This decision caused some discussion among fans and artists.
