When: Saturday, January 30, 2016 @ 8PM EST/5PM PST

Hot Spot: Shrine Auditorium, LA

Deets: One of the awards season’s premier events, the SAG Awards annually celebrates the outstanding motion pictures and television performances from the previous calendar year. Of the top industry honors presented to actors, only the SAG Awards are selected entirely by performers’ peers in SAG-AFTRA. The SAG Awards was the first televised awards show to acknowledge the work of union members and the first to present awards to motion picture casts and television ensembles. 

Two nominating panels — one for television and one for film — each composed of 2,200 randomly selected union members from across the United States, chose this year’s nominees. Final voting information will be mailed via postcard on Wednesday, Dec. 16 to 116,741 SAG-AFTRA members in good standing across the country, who may vote on all categories. In keeping with the SAG Awards’ commitment to sustainable practices, online voting is encouraged and paper ballots are available only upon request received by Wednesday, Jan. 13, 2016. All votes must be received at Integrity Voting Systems by noon on Friday, Jan. 29. Results will be tallied and sealed until the envelopes are opened by the presenters live onstage at the 22nd Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards ceremony on Jan. 30, 2016. 

The Screen Actors Guild Post-Awards Gala benefiting the SAG-AFTRA Foundation will be hosted for the 20th consecutive year by PEOPLE and the EntertainmentIndustryFoundation (EIF). For more information about the SAG Awards®, SAG-AFTRA, TNT and TBS, visit sagawards.org/about.
