⭐ Core Definition: Golden Globe

The Golden Globe Awards are awards presented for excellence in both international film and television. It is an annual award ceremony held since 1944 to honor artists and professionals and their work. The ceremony is normally held every January, and has been a major part of the film industry's awards season, which culminates each year in the Academy Awards. The eligibility period for Golden Globes corresponds from January 1 through December 31. The Golden Globes were not televised in 19691972, 1979, and 2022. The 2008 ceremony was canceled due to the 2007–08 Writers Guild of America strike, while the 2022 ceremony was downsized to a non-televised gala due to a lack of broadcaster and the COVID-19 pandemic.

The ceremony was originally established and organized by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, a group representing international journalists covering the United States' entertainment industry. In 2022, amid criticism and boycotts of the HFPA over aspects of its operations (including a lack of diversity in its membership), interim CEO Todd Boehly announced that the Golden Globe Awards would be reformed as a for-profit entity under his investment firm Eldridge Industries (the parent company of Dick Clark Productions, which had produced the Golden Globes since 1993), and that a new non-profit entity would be formed to continue the HFPA's philanthropic activities. The restructuring took effect on June 12, 2023, with the Golden Globes being acquired by Dick Clark Productions, and the HFPA's philantrophic activities transitioned to the Golden Globe Foundation.
