Updated: Dec 12, 2023 11:21 PM CUTPublished: Dec 28, 2017 4:19 PM CUT The 75th [Golden Globe awards](http://time.com/5058171/2018-golden-globes-nominees/ "undefined") will soon be upon us. The annual ceremony brings together the biggest names in film and television for a boozy celebration of the previous year’s work, kicking off the season of acceptance speeches and red-carpet arrivals that culminates with the doling out of Oscars in early March. Here’s what to know about the 2018 Golden Globes awards ceremony. ## When are the Golden Globes? The Golden Globes 2018 date is Sunday, Jan. 7\. The awards will be broadcast live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel on NBC starting at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PST. Check out where you can [watch or stream the Golden Globes online for free.](http://time.com/money/5084724/golden-globes-2018-live-free/ "undefined") ## Who is hosting the Golden Globes? _Late Night_‘s [Seth Meyers](http://ew.com/tv/2017/12/22/seth-meyers-golden-globes-promo-weinstein/ "undefined") will host the 2018 Golden Globes, taking the baton from Jimmy Fallon, who presented the awards last year. Meyers joins a line of hosts that has previously included Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Ricky Gervais — and he takes on the job as Hollywood continues to reel from numerous claims of [sexual harassment and assault](http://time.com/5015204/harvey-weinstein-scandal/ "undefined") within the industry. “We’ve got a lot to talk about,” Meyers says in one promo for the ceremony, hinting that he won’t be shying away from challenging subjects during the Golden Globes show. ## Who are the Golden Globe nominees? The 2018 Golden Globes nominations were announced Dec. 11, with the [_The Shape of Water_](http://time.com/4923582/the-shape-of-water-guillermo-del-toro-review/ "undefined") leading the pack among movies with seven nominations. [_The Post_](http://time.com/5073510/the-post-movie-review/ "undefined") and [_Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri_](http://time.com/5016723/three-billboards-outside-ebbing-missouri-review/ "undefined") followed, with six nods each, while _Lady Bird_ scooped up four nominations. _Big Little Lies_ dominated on the TV side with six nominations, while _Feud: Bette and Joan_ received four nods. _Fargo_, _This Is Us_ and _The Handmaid’s Tale_ each received three nominations. One of the year’s biggest snubs came in the Best Director category, where no women were nominated. Greta Gerwig (_Lady Bird_), Patty Jenkins (_Wonder Woman_) and Dee Rees (_Mudbound_) were all passed over, despite directing some of the most critically acclaimed movies of the year. Other films that didn’t make the cut despite buzzy reception include _The Big Sick_ and _Mother!_.

Golden Globes nominees rarely know who exactly is [voting for them](http://time.com/4628608/golden-globes-2017-winners-oscar-predictions/ "undefined"). The voters belong to the [Hollywood Foreign Press Association](http://time.com/4628608/golden-globes-2017-winners-oscar-predictions/ "undefined"), a group of about 90 journalists from all over the world that is rather secretive about the identities of its members. ## Will anything be different about this year’s ceremony? Yes, at least on the Golden Globes red carpet: Multiple high-profile actresses are reportedly planning to wear black to the ceremony to protest sexual harassment in Hollywood. According to _People_, participating nominees including Jessica Chastain, Emma Stone and Meryl Streep, among other women, [plan to wear black dresses](http://ew.com/awards/2017/12/14/golden-globes-actresses-wearing-black-protest-harassment/ "undefined") to the Golden Globes, and possibly to more events throughout awards season. Reports also indicate that many male actors, including Dwayne Johnson, intend to [wear black in solidarity](http://ew.com/awards/2017/12/27/golden-globes-men-black-protest/ "undefined"). Expect fewer questions about _who_ attendees are wearing on the red carpet and more about _why_ they’re wearing it. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5077939/golden-globes-2018-date-host-nominees/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5077939/golden-globes-2018-date-host-nominees/"},"headline":"Everything You Need to Know About the 2018 Golden Globes","datePublished":"2017-12-28T16:19:17.000Z","dateModified":"2023-12-12T23:21:22.000Z","description":"When are the Golden Globes?
