The 2025 Critics Choice Awards are celebrating their milestone 30th anniversary with this Friday’s show. On February 7th, the CCA Awards will take place at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica at 7 PM (PST). The original air date was previously scheduled for January 12th before the ceremony was postponed out of respect for those impacted by the LA wildfires. The Critics Choice Awards ceremony will broadcast live on E!. The show will also stream on Peacock next day. It is worth noting that voting ended on January 10th.
