Summary
- The Academy Awards will begin streaming on YouTube in 2029.

- ABC will continue broadcasting the Oscars until 2028.

The prestigious Academy Awards are embarking on a new era, transitioning to YouTube for streaming starting in 2029. This significant move comes just one year after the ceremony celebrates its 100th anniversary. YouTube has secured the broadcasting rights for the Oscars through 2033, reportedly outbidding all other interested parties.
While the transition won't happen immediately, ABC will continue to air the world's most-watched awards telecast until 2028. This ensures the 100th edition of the Oscars will still be available on its long-time network home before the streaming debut.
YouTube CEO Neal Mohan expressed excitement for the partnership, highlighting the Academy's role in honoring storytelling and artistry. He anticipates that bringing the Oscars to YouTube will inspire future generations of filmmakers and audiences globally.
