Awards season is here, and the 82nd Golden Globe Awards is the first major event to celebrate the best in film and television from the past year. Airing live on Monday, 6 January, for Australian audiences, the Globes promise an entertaining mix of glamour, drama, and surprises. Here’s how you can tune in, what to expect, and where to catch the year’s most talked-about nominees.
When and where to watch the 2025 Golden Globes in Australia
The Golden Globes ceremony will take place in the US on Sunday, 5 January, translating to an Australian broadcast on Monday, 6 January.
Red carpet coverage begins at 10am AEST, and the ceremony kicks off at 11am AEST, running for approximately three hours.
How to watch:
• Live on Channel 10
• Streaming on Paramount+
• Follow live updates via ABC News, which will live-blog the event on its website and app.
What films and shows are leading the pack
This year’s nominations showcase an eclectic mix of cinematic and small-screen achievements. Leading the charge is Jacques Audiard’s surreal musical Emilia Pérez, which secured 10 nominations.
Close behind are:
• The Brutalist with seven nominations
• Conclave with six nominations
• Wicked, starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, with three nominations
Emilia Pérez and The Brutalist are shaping up as early frontrunners, with some speculating these films might dominate the Oscars as well.
History in the making: Nikki Glaser hosts the Golden Globes
Comedian Nikki Glaser will host the event, making history as the first woman to solo host the Golden Globes. Known for her razor-sharp wit and relatable humour, Glaser is fresh off a standout performance in Netflix’s The Roast of Tom Brady.
Glaser joins the ranks of past hosts like Sandra Oh, Tina Fey, and Amy Poehler, but she’ll be blazing her own trail as the sole emcee for the night.
