The 98th Academy Awards ceremony, following record-breaking nominations led by Ryan Coogler’s 'Sinners' with 16 nods announced in January, airs live on Sunday, March 15, 2026, at 7:00 PM ET from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Conan O’Brien hosts for the second year, with a star-studded presenter lineup.

Building on the nominations revealed on January 22, the 98th Academy Awards mark the climax of the 2025-26 film awards season. The live broadcast begins at 7:00 PM ET (4:00 PM PT) on ABC, lasting about three hours, with red carpet coverage starting at 6:30 PM ET. Streaming is available on Hulu and Disney+.

Conan O’Brien returns as host, infusing the event with his signature humor. 'Sinners,' the vampire horror epic starring Michael B. Jordan, shattered records with 16 nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director for Coogler. A Best Picture win would be groundbreaking for the genre. The competitive Best Picture field features 10 films, highlighted by high critics' scores for 'The Secret Agent' (98% on Rotten Tomatoes) and 'Sinners.'

An impressive array of presenters includes Academy Award winners Robert Downey Jr., Anne Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Paul Mescal, Kevin Costner, Chris Rock, Lady Gaga, Rosie Perez, Zoë Kravitz, and Yuh-Jung Youn, alongside Will Arnett.

The iconic Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood hosts the event, a venue steeped in Oscars history. This ceremony precedes the Academy's planned move to YouTube broadcasts starting in 2029.
