TV Academy to Require Proof of Vaccination at This Year's Emmys

As cases of the COVID-19 Delta variant continue to rise across the country, including in Los Angeles County, the Television Academy has added a vaccination requirement to all attendees of this year’s Emmy ceremonies. The org joins most Hollywood events, including premieres, now requiring proof of vaccination before entry.

As previously revealed, first in Variety, the Creative Arts Emmys will return to the Microsoft Theatre at L.A. Live this year, and include a limited audience of nominees and their guests. Attendees at all four shows will be required to show proof of vaccination for admittance.

As also previously written by Variety, there will be no post-show Governors Balls this year, but the TV Academy is reviving smaller peer group gatherings honoring nominees in various categories, which usually take place throughout the week before the Primetime Emmys.
