The Oscars will move to the larger Peacock Theater at L.A. Live in 2029 as the telecast shifts to YouTube, marking a new era with a 10-year venue deal through 2039.
- On Thursday, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the Academy Awards will move to the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles starting in 2029 as part of a new 10-year agreement with venue operator AEG.

- Transitioning from ABC to YouTube, the 2029 ceremony marks the 101st Academy Awards and ends the broadcast run on ABC that began in 1976.
