Ceremonies

Beginning with the 7th Academy Awards, held in February 1935, each year's awards are presented for films that were first shown during the full preceding calendar year from January 1 to December 31 in Los Angeles County, California. For the first five ceremonies, the eligibility period spanned twelve months from August 1 to July 31. [4] For the 6th ceremony, held in 1934, the eligibility period lasted from August 1, 1932, to December 31, 1933. [4] However, the 93rd Academy Awards cermony in 2021 was an exception to this tradition, instead honoring films that were released from January 1, 2020 to February 28, the following year. [5]

When citing each ceremony, Academy conventions may either list the year(s) of its eligibility period, [6] or the year in which the ceremony was actually held. [7]
