History

The award was first presented in 1966 as a strictly German television award. [1] Since 1987, it has also been awarded to international stars. In 1995, the categories expanded to pop groups and to more public interest categories.[ citation needed ]

In 2019, a Climate Action Award was given to Greta Thunberg. [2]

In September 2019, Funke Mediengruppe announced the end of the traditional award for 2020. Due to a change in media consumption preferences of their audience in the course of digitization, the manager of Funke's magazine division said that the group would instead focus on digital content like the YouTube Goldene Kamera Digital Award.[ citation needed ] The YouTube Goldene Kamera Digital Awards were held from 2017 until 2020. [3]

The final main Goldene Kamera awards ceremony was planned to be awarded on 21 March 2020 with Thomas Gottschalk as presenter. [2] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the event in March 2020 was cancelled. It was rescheduled initially for 12 November 2020, [4] and later again to an unspecified date. [5]
