Table of contents:
When are the Oscars?
Circle your calendars and set those alarms because the 97th Academy Awards are gracing our screens at 11am AEDT on Monday, March 3, 2025. While the stars are popping champagne on Sunday night in LA, we’ll be kicking off our week with a healthy dose of Hollywood drama.
Where can you watch the 2025 Oscars in Australia?
Channel 7 and 7Plus are bringing the Oscars straight to your living room. And if you’re all about that streaming life, you can also catch everything on Disney+.
Whether you’re a traditional TV viewer or a streaming fanatic, you’re all set. (Just remember to mute those notifications if you’re “working from home” that day).
When does the red carpet start for the Oscars?
For those who live for the fashion more than the awards (same), the red carpet show starts at 10:30am AEDT on March 3. That’s right, you can judge celebrities’ outfit choices before you’ve even finished your morning coffee.
What a time to be alive.
Who is nominated for an Oscar in 2025?
This year’s nominations are packed!! Np matter your thoughts on the controversial movie, Emilia Pérez is leading the pack with a whopping 13 Oscar nominations, while The Brutalist and Wicked are close behind with 10 each. We’ve got Timothée Chalamet channelling Bob Dylan and Demi Moore giving The Substance realness.
You can see the full list of nominations HERE.
How many Oscar categories are there?
There are 23 categories where Hollywood’s finest can take home a golden statue. From Best Picture to Best Makeup and Hairstyling, there’s an award for pretty much everything except “Best Use of CGI” or “Most Convincing Accent by a Non-Native Speaker” (we’re looking at you, every actor who’s attempted an Australian accent).
Who will be hosting the 2025 Oscars?
Drum roll, please… It’s Conan O’Brien! The late-night legend is taking on the Oscars for the first time. And hey it’s bound to be more entertaining than that time (1989) we had no host at all, right?
Who will be performing at the 2025 Oscars?
I’m not going to lie, sometimes award shows bore me, but with this STACKED performance list, I am SAT. The lineup is full of divas including Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Doja Cat, LISA from BLACKPINK, and RAYE. I mean, could it get any better!!!
Check out the rest of the performances HERE.
Who’s predicted to win an Oscar in 2025?
We’re not in the business of making bets, but word on the street is that The Brutalist and Emilia Perez might clean up. But will Karla Sofía Gascón‘s recent controversies put a damper on that dream?
Timothée Chalamet is a hot favourite for Best Actor, and Demi Moore might just snag that Best Actress trophy. But hey, this is Hollywood – anything can happen. I’m honestly still recovering from that “Moonlight” envelope mix-up.
