Here's When The 2025 SAG Awards Are & All The Key Dates

The 31st annual Screen Actors Guild Awards will take place on Sunday, February 23, 2025. The two-hour ceremony will air live coast-to-coast on Netflix at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. This will mark the show's second year in a row live on Netflix.

The SAG Awards annually celebrate the outstanding film and television performances of the year. Voted on by SAG-AFTRA's 119,000-plus performing artists, the SAG Awards have the largest voting body on the awards circuit.

The SAG Awards have proven to be a consistent – ​​but not infallible – Oscar indicator. At this year's SAG Awards, the movie acting trophies went to Cillian Murphy OppenheimerLily Gladstone for Killers of the Flower MoonRobert Downey Jr. for Oppenheimer and Da'vine Joy Randolph for The Holdovers. All but one repeated those Oscar wins. (An exception was Gladstone, who lost the Oscars to Emma Stone Poor.)

The SAG Awards give their members plenty of time – more than five weeks – to vote in the final round. Voting is set to open on Wednesday, January 15, and close on Friday, February 21 – just two days before the awards are announced. This schedule ensures that the poll is fresh and up-to-date. At some other awards shows, voting closes a full month before the awards are announced.

Eligible shows must be screened or premiered between January 1, 2024 and December 31, 2024. All submissions must be made online through The SAG Awards website.
