The 31st Producers Guild Awards are set to be held Saturday, Jan. 18, 2020, the organization said Thursday. Additionally, after many years between the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza and the Beverly Hilton, the event will now place at the Hollywood Palladium.
“Each year, the PGA has the privilege to honor outstanding achievements in motion pictures, television and new media productions at the Producers Guild Awards,” PGA presidents Gail Berman and Lucy Fisher said in a statement. “We look forward to celebrating excellence in our field alongside giants of our industry who’ve defined the art and craft of producing.”

The PGA also announced that it has revamped its website to “further streamlines the process for productions submitted for the Producers Guild Awards and Producers Mark (p.g.a.) certification.” These changes “include a more user-friendly interface, better payment options and the ability to create user accounts for applicants,” which “will save time by retaining information from past submissions and allowing for information to be carried over from year to year.”
