The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) will stream the 47th Annual Sports Emmy Awards and the 47th Annual News & Documentary Emmy Awards live on YouTube.
Roy Wood Jr. returns as host the ceremony of the Sports Emmy Awards and sports media executive Steve Bornstein will receive Lifetime Achievement honors.
The News categories of the News & Documentary Emmy Awards will be hosted by Amber Ruffin and ABC’s Debra OConnell will present Lifetime Achievement honors to Emmy and Peabody-winning ABC News correspondent Martha Raddatz.
“Partnering with YouTube at this level for the first time allows us to put these ceremonies directly into the environment where so much of today’s journalism and storytelling already lives,” said Adam Sharp, President & CEO, NATAS. “The work we’re honoring isn’t confined to traditional platforms anymore, and neither is the audience.”
Each ceremony will be held at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Frederick P. Rose Hall, Broadway at 60th Street, New York City and viewers can watch on the NATAS YouTube channel at youtube.com/@theemmys, with the Sports Emmy Awards airing May 26 and the News & Documentary Emmy® Awards airing May 27 and 28.
