Back in January, the 2024 Golden Globes kicked off a thrilling and turbulent awards season with a bang: Jo Koy ruffled feathers; Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet looked like they’d been plucked straight out of a ’90s rom-com; Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez kept lip readers in business the world over; and almost everyone who’d go on to scoop an Oscar in a major category – from Christopher Nolan and Cillian Murphy to Emma Stone, Robert Downey Jr, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Justine Triet, Billie Eilish, Hayao Miyazaki and the producers of Best Picture winner Oppenheimer – took home a Globe first. There was also the added allure of glamorous TV contenders – the casts of Succession, The Bear, Beef and The Crown were all in attendance – as well as the raucous and relaxed atmosphere that sets this star-studded celebration apart from its more serious counterparts.
So, what surprising victories, hilarious speeches and jaw-dropping viral moments will the 2025 ceremony bring? Here’s everything we know so far.

When will the 2025 Golden Globes take place?
The 2025 Golden Globes are taking place sooner than you might think: on Sunday 5 January 2025, from 8pm EST (1am UK time on Monday 6 January).
Where will the 2025 Golden Globes be held?
The 82nd annual Golden Globes, like previous ceremonies, is expected to be held at The Beverly Hilton hotel in Los Angeles.
Who will host the 2025 Golden Globes?
After a disastrous stint from comedian Jo Koy – one which left many viewers asking if the show ought to be hostless going forward – the Golden Globes have appointed a new master of ceremonies for 2025: the Emmy-nominated stand-up Nikki Glaser (who also happens to be up for a Golden Globe herself this year). “I am absolutely thrilled to be hosting the Golden Globes,” she said, in a statement. “It’s one of my favourite nights of television and now I get a front row seat. The Golden Globes is not only a huge night for TV and film, but also for comedy. It’s one of the few times that show business not only allows, but encourages itself to be lovingly mocked (at least I hope so). (God I hope so.) It’s an exciting, yet challenging gig because it’s live, unpredictable, and in front of Hollywood’s biggest stars (who also might be getting wasted while seated next to their recent exes). Some of my favourite jokes of all time have come from past Golden Globes opening monologues when Tina, Amy or Ricky have said exactly what we all didn’t know we desperately needed to hear. I just hope to continue in that time honoured tradition (that might also get me cancelled). This is truly a dream job.”
When were the 2025 Golden Globe nominations announced?
The nominations for the 2025 Golden Globes were unveiled on 9 December 2024.
