The pandemic was supposed to be over in a few months, but it continues to affect upcoming events scheduled in the United States well into 2021.
ASIFA-Hollywood said on Monday that it would delay the Annie Awards ceremony from its usual slot in late January/early February to mid-April. The new date for next year’s event will be Friday, April 16, 2021.
The date change places the Annie Awards, the major industry award for the Los Angeles animation community, in close proximity to the Oscars, which had previously delayed its ceremony to Sunday, April 25, 2021.
