GOLDEN EVE will air as a marquee event during Golden Week, a new dynamic week-long experience across Paramount platforms that includes celebratory kick-off events ahead of the 83RD ANNUAL GOLDEN GLOBES(R). The first major awards show of the season airs live Sunday, Jan. 11, 2026 and is hosted by acclaimed Golden Globe, GRAMMY(R) and Emmy-nominated comedian and actress Nikki Glaser.
