When are the Emmy Awards in 2021?
Those hoping to catch the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards on television will have to tune in Sunday night, Sept. 19, 2021. So, what time do the Emmy Awards air? According to GoldDerby, the television event airs live on CBS at 8 p.m. EST. Cedric the Entertainer is hosting the event.
Those keeping up with the Emmy Awards 2021 know the primetime awards follow the Creative Arts Emmys. The Creative Arts Emmys were split into three ceremonies starting on Sept. 11, 2021. An edited version of the event is broadcast on Saturday, Sept. 18, 2021, at 8 p.m. EST on FXX. This could be the perfect way to kick off Emmys weekend for fans.
All of the above nomination categories will air during the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards. The Creative Arts Emmys feature categories in production design, cinematography, and sound, the publication notes.
How can fans watch without cable?
In addition to the Emmy awards air date, fans need to know how to watch the event. IndieWire reports those without cable who can’t catch the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards live on CBS need not fear, as it’s also available to stream on Paramount+. The service offers free trials. After the trial, users can pay $4.99 per month for the service with ads, and $9.99 without ads.
Additionally, Hulu Live TV, YouTube TV, FuboTV, and Sling offer CBS in their programs. Free trials are available here as well.
We can’t wait to see what’s in store for the live entertainment this year — particularly after the virtual Emmy Awards fans watched in 2020. It’s exciting to see the event return live at the Microsoft Theatre, even with a smaller capacity, with Cedric the Entertainer at the helm.
