29TH ANNUAL SCREEN ACTORS GUILD AWARDS®

COVID-19 SAFETY REQUIREMENTS AND PROTOCOLS

UPDATED AS OF MONDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 2023

The 29th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards endeavors to make this event as safe as possible. The health and well-being of our nominees, guests, staff, and crew are our number one priority. We are working closely with a COVID compliance agency to ensure a safe ceremony and are in compliance with local government and industry COVID-19 protocols.

The SAG Awards will follow public health authorities’ guidelines and recommendations, as well as any venue and/or COVID-19 production restrictions. All attendees including credentialed media and publicists, ticketed guests, talent, production crew, and staff must agree to comply with all COVID Related Restrictions.

Please note, we are continuing to monitor the evolving situation and this policy is subject to change based on guidance from health and safety officials or changes in state or local safety mandates. While we are enacting all precautions that are practical for a live award show, attendance at this event will not be 100% without risk. If you are not comfortable with this limited risk, we advise that you do not attend the event.
