Awards season is officially in full swing. Many of the biggest faces in Hollywood will gather at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles on Sunday night for the Golden Globe Awards. The high-wattage ceremony, hosted by Nikki Glaser for the second year in a row, will kick off at 5 p.m. PT/ 8 p.m. ET, with red carpet arrivals beginning around 3 p.m PT/ 6 p.m. ET.
The ceremony will broadcast live on CBS, but the best way for cable-cutters to tune into the event live is through Paramount+. Those without cable can also access CBS for the full live broadcast on live TV streamers such as DirecTV and Hulu + Live TV, both of which offer free trials so you can livestream the Golden Globes online free.

“One Battle After Another,” a blisteringly funny look at a repressive society riven by political violence, dominates this year’s lineup, heading into the ceremony with nine nominations. It’s followed closely behind by “Sentimental Value,” a drama about a filmmaker’s dysfunctional family, and “Sinners,” a vampire movie set in the segregated South, which earned eight nods and seven nods, respectively.
On the series front, “The White Lotus,” a satire set in a posh Thailand resort, and “Adolescence,” the story of a criminal investigation told in one continuous shot, led with six and five nominations, respectively. They were followed closely behind by the comedy-mystery show “Only Murders in the Building” and the sci-fi thriller “Severance,” which earned four nods apiece.
Variety will also kick off the anticipated night with a Golden Globes Red Carpet Pre-Show, this year presented by Fire TV. Hosted by Variety’s Angelique Jackson and Marc Malkin, the pre-show will deliver exclusive access, must-see interviews and real-time coverage from the red carpet.
Customers can watch the live pre-show for free, directly from their Fire TV home screens. It will also be available on Echo Show and Fire Tablet devices, Variety’s YouTube channel, plus Variety.com, starting at 3:30 p.m. PT, 6:30 p.m. ET.
Afterwards, tune into the Golden Globes on Paramount+ or livestream free on DirecTV.
