The 76th annual Tony Awards will be handed out at the United Palace in New York City’s Washington Heights on June 11.

The 76th annual Tony Awards are being handed out Sunday night.

Oscar winner and Tony nominee Ariana DeBose will return to host the ceremony, which this year is moving to the new location of the United Palace in New York City’s Washington Heights. See the red carpet arrivals.

The show will be split into two parts, with the preshow, The Tony Awards: Act One, airing live on Paramount Global’s FAST platform, Pluto TV, from 6:30-8 p.m. ET/ 3:30-5 p.m. PT. The main ceremony will air on CBS, from 8-11 p.m. ET/5-8 p.m. PT and also stream live and on demand on Paramount+.

This year’s show is taking place amid the ongoing writers strike after organizers struck a deal with the WGA to proceed without a script as a concession to the guild, which promised not to picket the event.

The list of nominees below will be updated with the winners as they are announced live. Refresh for the latest, and keep up with all of our coverage here.
