The 2026 Golden Globes are tonight. Here's how to watch live and what to know.

The Wait is Over: How to Watch the 2026 Golden Globes Live and Get the Lowdown on This Year's Nominations.

Get ready for a star-studded night as Hollywood's elite gather at The Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California. The 83rd annual Golden Globe Awards are tonight, marking the first major award show of the year to honor outstanding achievements in film and television.

For those who don't have cable or prefer streaming services, fear not – there are plenty of options available. CBS will broadcast the live ceremony starting at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT), while Paramount+ is offering a live stream for its Premium subscribers. Meanwhile, Essential subscribers will be able to catch up on the action beginning Monday.

But what can viewers expect from this year's Golden Globes? Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle After Another" takes top honors with nine nominations, while HBO's "The White Lotus" earns six nods for its third season. This year's ceremony also marks the debut of a new award – the first-ever Golden Globe for Best Podcast.

Comedian and actress Nikki Glaser is returning to host the ceremony for the second time in a row, bringing her signature wit and humor to the proceedings. "Picking the perfect jokes for the show, striking a balance between poking fun at the guests without ruining anybody's night, is one of...the most difficult jobs I've ever done," she told CBS Mornings.

In addition to the live ceremony, an earlier prime-time special titled "Golden Eve: The Golden Globes Honor Helen Mirren & Sarah Jessica Parker" aired last Thursday on CBS and Paramount+. The 90-minute program honored these two Hollywood legends with prestigious awards.

So mark your calendars for tonight's exciting event, and get ready to see who will take home the coveted golden statuettes. Will "One Battle After Another" be the big winner of the night? Can Nikki Glaser bring her A-game as host once again? One thing is certain – it's going to be an unforgettable evening filled with glamour, glitz, and plenty of Hollywood charm.

For those who can't catch it live, don't worry. The full list of Golden Globe nominees is available online, so you can get a head start on planning your viewing party or simply scope out the competition before the big night arrives.

🎥 I'm kinda bummed that they're not streaming the whole thing on Paramount+ for free anymore 🤔. I remember back in 2018 when they did, and it was a total game-changer for me 📺. Now you gotta pay extra to watch all the acceptance speeches and behind-the-scenes stuff. I get that the network wants to make some cash, but it's like, what's the point of even having a live stream if you're not gonna let everyone see the whole thing? 🤷‍♀️ Still, I guess it's gonna be worth tuning in for Nikki Glaser's hosting duties and the new podcast award 🎙️.

Both are so good, it's gonna be tough to pick a fave 🤔. I'm also loving the new podcast award - it's awesome that they're recognizing podcasts for their awesomeness 🎧. Whoever wins tonight, let's just enjoy the ride and soak up all the Hollywood magic ✨!
 
I don’t usually comment but... I think it’s kinda cool that they’re giving out an award for Best Podcast now 🤔. I mean, podcasting is such a huge part of pop culture and it's great to see the industry getting recognized like this. And Nikki Glaser as host? She always seems so funny and down-to-earth on her comedy specials 😂. But seriously, have you checked out any good podcasts lately? I feel like I've been missing out on some awesome shows 📺💻.
 
OMG 🤩, I'm so excited for the 83rd annual Golden Globes tonight! 😁 I've been following all the buzz around Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle After Another" and I have to say, nine nominations is crazy!!! 🤯 Nikki Glaser better bring her A-game as host, she's always hilarious 💁‍♀️. And yay for the new award for Best Podcast! 🎙️ Who knows which podcasts will get recognized? 🤔
 
I'm kinda hyped for tonight's Golden Globes 🤩 but have to say, I'm still salty about 'One Battle After Another' getting 9 nominations lol what's up with that? Is it a masterpiece or is Paul Thomas Anderson just trolling us at this point 🤔 I mean, I've seen some of the reviews and people are saying it's his magnum opus but I need to see it for myself before I can make up my mind 🎬
 
omg i'm so stoked for the golden globes tonight 🎉👏 they're always such an exciting event and it's gonna be amazing to see who wins what award. Nikki glaser as host is a genius idea, she's hilarious and will def bring that energy to the stage 💃🏻. but i'm really rooting for "one battle after another" to win big - paul thomas anderson is a genius filmmaker 🎥 can't wait to see which other shows & movies take home those golden globes 🤞
 
idk why everyone's making a fuss about this...the Golden Globes are always gonna be cheesy and overhyped 🤷‍♀️ anyway, i guess paul thomas anderson's "one battle after another" is getting some serious love with 9 nominations lol what's the big deal about that? it's just a movie, you know? 🎥 as for nikki glaser hosting, idk if she can pull off being funny without offending anyone...she's got a good track record so far tho 😂 and can we pls give some love to the actual artists instead of just the celebs who are hosting or attending the event? like, have you seen the list of nominees for best podcast 🤔 it's kinda cool that they're giving awards to creators and producers behind those shows.
 
omg, like I'm so stoked for the golden globes tonight! 🎉 i've been waiting for months to see what paul thomas anderson's got up his sleeve with "one battle after another" - nine nominations? that's insane! 🤯 and can you believe hbo's "the white lotus" is getting six nods for its third season? fingers crossed for a few wins... 👍 the podcast award is a nice touch too, like who doesn't love podcasts, right? 😂 nikki glaser as host again? i'm all in for her wit and humor - she always brings the funny! 💁‍♀️ let's get this party started at 8 p.m. ET tonight! 🕰️
 
the golden globes are just another excuse for hollywood to throw a fancy party and pretend like they're still relevant 🎉🍾 i mean, what's the point of even having an award show anymore? it's all just about who can wear the most designer clothes and have the best tan. but hey, if you're into that sorta thing, go for it! watch it live or catch up on a monday morning - either way, it'll be over before you know it 👀
 
idk why people even bother watching the golden globes anymore... its all just a bunch of self-congratulatory nonsense 🤷‍♂️. they're just giving awards to whoever has the most money and connections in tinseltown, not actually recognizing any real talent or achievements. Nikki Glaser is gonna try her best as host but it's still gonna be cringeworthy at times 😂. btw, who thought it was a good idea to give out an award for best podcast 📻?
 
man, gotta say, been looking forward to these golden globes for ages 🤩 its gonna be one crazy night at the beverly hilton hotel, i mean, nine nominations for paul thomas andersons "one battle after another" is straight fire 🔥 but i'm also hyped to see what nikki glaser brings to the table as host again 😂 she's got that comedic flair down pat. gotta love how they're giving a golden globe to podcasting 📻 its about time we recognize the medium, right? 🎙️ anyway, if you can't make it live, check out the full list of nominees online and get your party started early 👍
