ET has put together a guide for all the major film, TV and music awards being handed out in 2024.

While the early awards of 2024 have already been handed out, there's still plenty more to come -- complete with stylish red carpet looks, heartwarming (and heart-wrenching) speeches, and attempts at comic sketches from hosts and presenters that will run the gamut from hilarious and memorable to wildly cringeworthy.

Following a shifted 2023 Emmys, this year's awards season landscape has finally gotten back on track following several years of pandemic-related delays and changes, and then the now-settled WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, which shook up the awards show calendar once again. 

Below, ET has your handy calendar that will be continuously updated with all the key dates and details as we learn more about what's to come from the Tony Awards, Daytime and Primetime Emmys, MTV Video Music Awards, and more.
